Please excuse the verbal illness I'm suffering from this morning, and another post.
In the 80s we used a TOJ BMW in Thundersports and I swear it was the sweetest car to drive. The jewel in particular was the 2 litre BMW which if you kept the reves to 9,500, would go on forever. 9,700 and you were in trouble.
Our car did well in international sports cars at Brands in 82 running third in the rain behind the Rothman Porsches at one stage, I think. Alan Batt in Bristol bought the car in 83 and we ran it carefully for 2 years. I go back to the basic balance of power weight grip and aerodynamics being so good. If I could work the system I have one or two lovely shots of the car.
The Walkers bought the car from us; I don't know where it is now, but it's a gem.
