Harewood is a really good hill, the track and the venue, if a bit tedious to get there.(from my place).

Run it several times but in my hot Impreza on slicks, road driven there and back.
It is well used by the Porsche guys today who do it in their droves.
Tempted to do it next year....

Have 'my' trophy on the shelf now, my name 3 times in a row, dead chuffed and beyond my dreams.

I'm re-restoring my old 911 now with the Lola in storage as I need the space. A 911 is very big when you take it apart!

While doing some boring work on it my mind has drifted to an engine hike to 3.4 litres, 8,000 rpm still on carbs.
Those extra revs would rule out the need to change gears so often, yield about 300bhp and a further 50 lbft.
