Does any one have clear photos of the NC30 raced by Phil Mcallan in the 1992 NW200 [1st] and TT [2nd] and 1993 TT, practice only. [Castrol Honda green/white].

Thanks,
Dave.

I'd forgotten about that white/green colour scheme, much better than the all red or the later silver/black imo.
Would look good on an NSR250 I think...

Thanks,
Someone asked me for Phils 400 colours, they want to paint an NC that way, I only have a blurred photo taken from a video.

You probably are Rick, last time I saw him he was somewhat heavier than in his racing days. He's still frighteningly quick though be it behind the wheel of a van or the bars of a Triumph Tiger!

Is that an NC30 with a different swining arm on or something else?
