Bernard Beguin Circuit of Ireland

One of mine showing Beguin undergoing a gearbox change during 1985 Circuit. Gearbox changes always proved problematic on the 911 scrs as took an age due to location with being rear engined. Toivonen was forced to retire 12 months earlier on the Circuit for running over time due to a change. Beguin received penalties for going over time with this change and had transmission troubles throughout the event. If didn't have these maladies would have challenged Brookes and McRae for the lead.
