    I met Andrew Stroud at Pukekohe raceway about 14 years ago . Kevin Swantz was there and Andrew rode the BRITTEN. What a gentleman and a fantastic rider. I chatted to him and still have a signed poster of him. Ps I live in South Africa and was in NZ on holiday.

    Awesome vid
    Should be standard watching at NZ primary/intermediate schools.
    So many inspirational kiwis hail from motorsport.
    Most haven't even heard of Denny Hulme , much less Mr Britton.
    Thanks for sharing 🙏

    I was at the races at Seaview, Petone sometime in the early 1980s. There was a young rider in the production 250 races who was obviously fast and SO smooth. That was Andrew Stroud.

    I had no idea either Andrew nor John are Christians... nice to hear :)

    • @warrenholmar1129

      John Britten has been my hero for years no idea he was a Christian.

    • @deepfryblue
      @deepfryblue 3 роки тому +2

      oh yes Andrew famously so, Christian that is. John not so which is why Andrew was a little taken aback when John asked him to read some bible passages upon his sick bed. Of course being a most intelligent man he would never discount the unknowable..i guess, and only really fully embraced the holy word at the end with the help of his great friends..i believe

    I have to admit I posted this video many years ago and haven't really looked at this page since. It's great to have all your feedback on the video and it's so good to see how much some of you really appreciate it. It was a privilege to meet Andrew and spend the time with him (along with the force of nature that is John Shand who conducted the interview), as well as learning so much about John Britten. All the best, Tim
