Stewie Reid's entry has Mark Stacey as Navigator, I'm sure the photo that I didn't see of his car had Iain Stewart on the window. :yawinkle:

What was the deal with your entry John? Were you in a touring category or something other than competition? That pic looks like you were pushing the car hard just like it is supposed to be :D . Love it.

Hi all we were in a touring class however I was having a bit of a crack as it was so much fun and we felt good
Colin did a great job with the car transforming it from dirt to tarmac and the engine was very strong (thanks to Colin)
Danny the car has never ran adjustable tops so a compromise was the answer and was not to bad all things considered
it under steered when pushed hard but over all quite neutral point and steer the only big problem was the 4.11 rear
whith the ZF tall 1st I will work that out I need a 4.7/6/5/4 very hard to find may have found a 4.7 which would be great
but will belive it when I see it :grin: :grin: :grin:

I think the last time it ran was eather 83/84

Hi John, with me not knowing the exact crownwheel Dia you are using, you should be able to source that ratio from the US now. I also know that this ratio was used in the South Africa market and can still be sourced if you have a good parts guy. I have purchased this ratio out of S Africa in the past.
