ian beckett should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Having re-read all the posts again a few minutes ago(it's sad I know!!) I saw a few comments about favourite memories of the car and mine has to be of Hans Stuck in practice at Donington for the '83 ETC meeting.I watched in awe as lap after lap he would approach Mcleans at unabated speed and launch the car over the kerbs causing the car to rise onto two and at the time I believed on occasions onto only the rear outside wheel before charging up the hill.He would gain yards on those around him and others tried but always failed to emulate his method. Great days because at the time Donington still had trees in parts coming right down to the edge of the barriers and sitting amongst the pines on a warm.sunny spring day it made me think of the Nurburgring!
