Must admit, I hate that photo. It is the last one I have of the car before it went to NZ, looking very tired at Bathurst. It didn't qualify for a number of reasons, and Peter Williamson had just lost his car dealership, note the sticker on the bumper says 'Peter Williamson for Toyota', the 'for' has been added in since the previous race. Toyota had withdrawn their sponsorship when he lost the dealership, hence the car is mainly plain white. All the race engines had been built with the wrong compression ratio, and the best time he got was a 2:31 when the car should have been in the low 20's. Being in the outright category rather than Under 3L (it was changed to 2.5L for 1987) didn't help. The car had already been sold as well, to a friend of John Sax in NX, and John had basically bought his drive as part of the deal, but then couldn't get the car under 2:40, not that it would have mattered. A sad end to 4 years of racing in Australia. In 4 visits to Bathurst, the car only did 32 race laps, unfortunately this is probably a record for all the wrong reasons!
