In its class the Exterminator proved almost unbeatable over the 1/8th at Brooksfield. In outright competition the big 3 were Ken Virgin's VW, Peter Hines's Munster and the Exterminator although all three ran in different classes. The Exterminator also took out Junior Mr Holden Eliminator on the East Coast.

The spectator car park departure shot shows the wide variation of cars from Hillmans to Cussos, Valiants to a plethora of early Holdens and jogged a memory of washing the grit out of my hair when home as Brooksfield had to be one of the dustiest places on earth. But it was drag racing and I guess that is all that mattered back then. Col
