In the 1970s Eric Poole took two 1200s with him to Trinidad. Eric raced the carbureted one at Wallersfield where he rolled it. Maraj bought the injected one, in the 1980s it crashed and burned at the Wallersfield track. Most of the parts then went into his roadgoing Datsun B310 'PAJ3199'. It eventually was sold to Dexter Seecharran in great shape and years later used for pizza deivery.
