petestenning should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
And Gordon will know there was Mountains Garage in Hildenborough owned by Ian Fraser the Imp tuner and racer. My late father worked there and had one of the first production Imps. As Rootes produced any update Ian gave Dad the mod to put on his car to see if it worked .

I am glad to say they did and it was great as a small boy to see us sitting at a set of trafic light on the north circular with an E type Jag next to us reving his engine like a twot. Lights change and the Imp was across the junction before the Jag moved lol. A rather silly looking driver soon went passed , i expect he did not sit reving t the next set of lights.
