Tragically the numbers are a little low, we only had 47 entries for Round Britain. I believe all the real racers were busy on a merry go round.

If short is beautiful, why start the engine at all? just get a fancy paint job and and a load of polished ali!....hang on a minute....

Now don'ty go getting tetchy, I'm only messin about.

20 YEARS! I don't think so. Need time to recover from last year first.

if you dont want the expense of suspension units
have a look at this dynafoam

we used it in OCR for a couple of years and the difference
was fantastic it removes nearly all the shocks
