The machine was designed and made by a Christchurch man, John Britten. It is the revolutionary Cardinal Britten VII (pictured above) which had an easy victory at Ruapuna last Sunday. Mr Britten, 42, a property manager, is pleased the airfied championship races have attracted more than 40 entries. The two races, each over five laps, are part of the Lady Wigram Trophy meeting. The V1100 has created much interest at meetings in this country and overseas. At least six motor-cycle racers and collectors have been so impressed with the motorcycle that Mr Britten and some other enthusiasts are going to hand-build machines for them. Each will cost about $140,000. They are destined for Hong Kong, Canada, Belgium and Japan.
