Thanks for mentioning our site, John. Just to clarify the RP27/Delta confusion, this is what happened.....

I was entered in a black Delta that is currently being rebuilt, and Iain Rowley was entered in a Royale RP27, recently purchased by fellow FF2000 racer, Stuart Olley. Marcus Pye was going to race Iain's blue/yellow Delta. Marcus was called up for commentary duties, and it became obvious that "my" Delta would not be ready, so I changed my entry to Iain's Delta. With Iain up to his eyes in work, it was decided that I should race the Royale as there would not be enough time to prep Iain's car (which had not turned a wheel since Spa 2002). However...... an all-nighter on Friday by Iain got the Delta ready, so he raced that. All clear now?

My first single seater outing since 1979 was punctuated by a cooling hose coming off, ignition timing slipping, exploding clutch, flywheel bolts shearing, water pump pulley falling off etc etc etc. 5 laps testing, 1 lap qualifying, back of grid.

Iain won..........
