Topic: Solved - MJW #276 - Trimax driven by Spike Rhiando at Rest and Be Thankful hillclimb

[woodinsight]

What car is this?
Name, year and what engine/size was fitted?
An extra point if you can tell me who is driving it and where.

[woodinsight]

A possible two points for an expert

[woodinsight]

No expert guesses so up to the top level now
Don't forget this is a 2 point puzzle and I'll post another clue/photo if there is no response from the Pros in due course

It is a 1949 Rhiando Trimax by Alvin 'Spike' Rhiando. It was built for 500, 750 annd 1000cc engines. Can be considered the first monoocque car, alhough some say there was a 1915 Cornelian...
Will try to find the event info as well.

That's the car.
I'll lock it for you until your next reply and in the meantime here is another couple of views (not at the event I asked for)

[woodinsight]

Faksta, any further thoughts on what the event was?
If not, I'll unlock it again and give you a point for identifying the car.

[faksta]

Yes, please, unlock it - had no time to dig, so let the others try.

[woodinsight]

Okay - one point for faksta and open to all to gain the other point....

Is the event the Rest-and-be-Thankful hillclimb?
