We're not too happy about the inclusion of indycars, 4.2 litres is hard to keep up with when you only have 2.5 litres! It's a bit of a surprise to see that they can turn right as well as left though! |

I guess we shouldn't overlook the fact that Gareth is a pretty 'useful' pedaller even though he is self deprecating! (pic below)
Our FISCAR Tom Cole Trophy Race whilst down on numbers from previous years, produced some close racing particularly at the front when the Martin Hunt/Patrick Blakeney-Edwards HWM just beat the lovely Maserati 250S of Richard Wilson by less than 3 tenths of a second. |

 The other thing that is often not understood is that whilst they have an offset engine, the drivers weight is the other side and they have pretty even weight distribution left to right. It wasnt until the late 50s that they started off-setting the axles. Those late cars would not be as balanced left and right, but the earlier cars are fine (and a whole lot of fun) |

 By the way, really nice pics as on usual. Just out of my curiosity, do you use ASA 100 or 400 sometimes …
