Brian Redman Chevron B29

After 12 seasons of the Tasman Cup, New Zealand and Australia went their separate ways in 1976 and ran separate championships, but still for F5000 and still in their traditional dates. Once the pre-series hype had died down, the Peter Stuyvesant series only attracted one non-Australasian name, the US F5000 champion Brian Redman, but after RAM Racing pulled out their planned entries, Redman found himself driving a F2 Chevron B29 entered by Fred Opert.

Redman put up some sterling performances but was ultimately outclassed by the F5000 machines.
