Do you confirm the "bath" thing?
Racing on beaded edged tyres and wooden wheels is fine - all the wheels were rebuilt after I got the car (that was 34 years ago ) and I have not had to soak them at all.

I am simply working on the basis that some weight transfer will make a difference to the way it handles

Absolutely! I had the opportunity to visit the best Ford collection in Europ, Den Hartogh now closed, and was amazed by the number and quality of period accessories dedicated to the T Model. Ramps of double bronze carbs, special 16 valves heads, so called systems to have "independent" front wheels (sometimes independent of the driver's will!) drums all round and double CWP to obtain a four speed gearbox were common.
And when you're a newbie, some collectors love to say with a weird glimpse: "Please make yourself at home, start it with the crank its an unforgettable experience". I almost lost a shoulder doing this.
Hazing, yes?

Rebuilding and maintaining this kind of stuff seems not to be a piece of cake, I remember Edd China knowing few success with his PP and Brighton attempts.

Not really a puzzle, but can anyone identify/decipher these signatures?
They are from a Le Mans Legends dinner.

I have Derek Bell, Tom Christienson, and Norman Dewis, and David Piper but cannot make head or tail of the rest, although I suspect Yannick Dalmas , may be there. Gerard?

Yes, Bob, I'm with you looks like Dalmas, four time winner. And its Christensen. I've always admired Derek Bell, looks like a nice person. I was sitting on the guard rail with a bloke when he sent his Mirage out of the track, in the new Maison Blanche portion. '79 may be?

OK, I think I have got it.

I was reading Brabham as Dalmas.

Gerard, here do you have Dalmas?

Bob, talking about French drivers brings me back to a discussion we had about some of them. One of those, when leading the race at Monza in '92 "just" rolled his 905 for some reason: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSsyZFBCtB4 Improvised dummy for Pug crash test, rep of the year for Toyota. He then became test pilot for Lufthansa https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NTSdaILo4L4. Grounded after that…
Better than a selfie, Max!

I must confess that I find Jean Alesi recently became a very good TV presenter, polite and nice, acceptable english, wise questions, huge knowledge and relaxed atmosphere during his itw's. Enough to distract from his nickname which was "flat out, flat out, flat out, gravel, oops!"…

Being pedantic, if neither were unable to help, it follows that they did provide assistance!

I think that you meant both were unable to help.

Morning Baubs

It is Dave Richards above Piper and below Bell -did you have that one?


We might be at a point where you scan the remaining unknowns out separately so tracking them is easier - possible?
