Steve, Where did Les Edmunds come from?
David Betts [HC "ex Pryce Atlantic" AS 18.4.74 p.43] Betts came from Huddersfield
fs A/S 13.6.74 p. 65 RP11 FB with Vegantune t/c only 2 races from new Huddersfield 61008
I think this would be RP11-6
RP11-1 was rebuilt after Pryce's Monaco accident in 1973 but I think as an F3 car.
RP11-2 is destroyed by Musetti in testing in 1973 and I'm not sure it was rebuilt. His car in Atlantic may be another chassis that once belonged to Reystan Racing
RP11-3 available after 1973
RP11-4 in Germany with Kremer
PR11-5 available in 1975
RP11-6 described as works Atlantic/F3 car, new for Pryce after Monaco
RP11-7 described as sold to Basilwood in 1972, who was this? Was this the Lee Kaye car in 1972 and where did it go after
RP11-8 available in 1975 after Martin Howse
There's a problem with the works record in the Royale book perhaps because A/S says 12 made 22.2.73 p. 43 plus the RP11 prototype! So 13 against 8
Reystan in 1973 have an RP11 early season for Sutcliffe that I can't quite explain. It's called a RP11A, but can't be the Vermuelen car. RP11A-2?
Or is it either of the works cars [1 or 6] or the Basilwood car?
Musetti takes over this car from Sutcliffe when he falls out with the team and Musetti writes off his own car. My reading of the situation is that this is then the car that becomes Musetti's Atlantic chassis, eventually sold to Mike Franey in 1975, but probably by then a combination with bits from the original chassis 2
