Hello everybody, I am glad that the information was of some help and you like the car.
@Mike and Terry. I am looking forward meeting you next year. Nurburgring, Spa or Silverstone...?! Mike I still need to see your Escort racer live somewhere to bring me up to speed with my Twin Cam project!
@Henrik, good luck with your TISA project. Do not hesitate to contact me for any questions.

Jeremy, thanks for your comment. You are right, the drilled bonnet was no standard part on the 200 factory TISA and it was not explicitly homologated. But the works had them on some of their race cars. I think it should be possible to prove that those works cars were entered in international events. But I don't know about todays FIA approval issues therefore leave this discussion open for the guys still racing these cars today.
Merry Christmas,
Stephan
