As far as I remember tyre rules were fairly relaxed, we ran Avon ZZs, and I think some cars were on Dunlop Rs. Most people drove to finish, we certainly did and the car was in rally trim with pressed steel wheels, non close ratio box and we even had the Halda running throughout!
The next year we had a C/R box, Oselli engine, alloy wheels, competition brakes..... and covered one lap less! Mind you there was a 40 minute safety car during a hailstorm of biblical proportions which blew the startline gantry through 90 degrees. Happy days, and I'm there this year too, but only in the HSCC race.
