    This is my favourite Brabham.
    Bt31/1 powered by a single cam 2.5 litre V8.
    Ex Brabham/Stillwell and now back in Melbourne.
    Test at Calder this week before its next meeting at Easter S.Aust.
    Fab sound and i think PS gave it a little bit of throttle and it was moving.
    Awesome car.

    they run group P/Q togeither,very fast motor car very clean threw the air,Stillwell was timmed at phillip island without wings doing just over 170mph.,not far of in straight line speed to the lola t430.
    A proper formula car ,in fact as close to a period F1 as you will get.

    So you're helping the guy that rammed your Porsche?

    The Brabham looks great though.

    Thanks for that RB! Gorgeous, gorgeous car, I just love the purity of that era of race cars; wish I could get to hear it, any idea what races he'll be entering with it?

    A very pretty car.

    Easter Mallala.Did you see it before it went O/seas?
    its pure late 60s F1 with a smaller engine.
    last Brabham built with a repco.
