Tiff remembers that the auction
of which he was in charge as well
as presenting prizes to the leading
team, made most of its money
through the bids for the chance to
wax the chest of organiser Nigel
Ross, which was countered by
other bidders trying to save it!
Tiff remembers that the auction of which he
was in charge as well as presenting prizes to
the leading team, made most of its money
through the bids for the chance to wax the
chest of organiser Nigel Ross, which was
countered by other bidders trying to save it!
One wonders why this should be; in any event
he eventually subjected himself to his
inevitable grisly fate in the hot wax!
‘I recall that we, at some late hour, then
adjourned to a local bar,’ says Tiff, and again
recalls a tremendous atmosphere of
camaraderie among a disparate group of
drivers with one major thing in common: the
love of beautiful cars and of driving them in
luxurious and dramatic locations. ‘You could
say that these drivers might be anyone from a
ABOVE: Nigel Ross MD shaking Tiffs hand
bricklayer to a billionaire,’ he observes, ‘but
they are linked by a common interest that
means these are not just average people.
I suppose on that last evening the feeling was
particularly high spirited as there was no need
for an early night preceding a day on the road.
I certainly remember having a very good time.’
In fact Tiff has enormously enjoyed his
association with Supercars on Tour,
continuing of course to support the
involvement with SPARKS and always
generously willing to lend his considerable
influence to our efforts at fund raising, as well
as enjoying the conviviality of meeting with our
drivers. We look forward to future meetings
with relish.
