A shame, but time moves on for everyone and everything I guess.
However surely there's be an opportunity for a semi histric effort perhaps for a series of races rather than a full season?

Someone mentioned the Firenza's earlier - I remmber back in the Duckhams days that Trevor Griffiths and a guy near where I live; Rob Walker, (I think?) had a pair of indecently quick examples.

They were up against David Shead's Mk1 Capri, Derek Wileman's Mk3, a couple of Dolomite Sprints, the John Newbould's rorty Cortina, a couple of excelllent Sunbeam Lotus', and, a Mazda RX3 I seem to recall!!!?

The fields were always packed with races for the 2 big classes and races for the smaller 2 classes as well.

Was pretty good entertainment
