I'd be happy with

Re: The 2017 Annual RAN SH Sydney Rocks Xmas Pub Crawl Smoke
If anyone would like to come along to our family club day I can get you a ride in just about any Historic Tourinf car from a mini through Cortina, an EH Holden to Various model Mustangs to Comaro and maybe even a Ford Falcon Sprint.
One of our life members got to drive Martin Clunes/Doc Martin on a couple of flying laps round Phillip Island last year. Martin had never been in a race car let lone a mini. Ted Brewster is in his early 1980's and is still a very quick capable driver. The funny thing about the film shoot was that the drone the crew were using couldn't keep up with the car, so Ted was asked to slow down a bit.

I located Clay Goodwin on FB and told him about the SHRR and suggested he join here for more information.
