PVMW promised an SD1 2 litre this year in place of the Nash but it now appears he has had a change of heart.
Length for front engined cars is from the rearmost part of the brake pedal to c/l rear axle, for mid engined machines it is something like brake pedal to bulkhead.
You're right the R5 may be a dodo, one was there last year I forget how successfully. Some years ago now Dave White ran an ex touring car MG Maestro which I thought would be perfect but he found it in his words 'surprisingly slow'
As a younger spectator I watched in disgust as Paul Channon in an SRi Cavalier drove around the outside of a DB4 Aston and shattered a whole load of illusions at once. For me that is what makes the event so intriguing seeing the such a mix of machines and how some seem to stand out so unexpectedly.
The Peugeots are certainly a possibility, they would come in on price, I wonder too if they can be easily 'chipped' like the Astra to transform their output?
