Very cool. That is a long throw on the shifter.

Certainly is a long throw on that shifter,does anyone have any footage of a 915 or a g50 being put through its paces ?

This is two years back. Not the greatest 1/4 mile run, but the G50 was in then already:

or circuit driving. This was a TimeAttack qualifying lap:

I made it a 6 speed, owner says its a Hewland mk 9 but they dont come with 6 gears, whatever, its a nice sorted car, steering looks very stable with no "Holywood" inputs going on, runs in GT3, but that might be a local version rather than the FIA series, tho' its well known enough for red bull to want it on they're demo package, so it must have a good history, im gonna dig a bit deeper..

Ahh I want a G50 even more now Wally,looks so sweet n easy to use thanks for the videos.I am doing more research at the moment when I get time as work is so hectic.But your car and Ricolas are two builds that I have been gawping at to get in my mind what I want to do next.

Hi mate, you'll have to get me at work, 0208 69 23455 and try me, im frantic mostly, but theres lots i turn away as not viable, and i dont do any project stuff , body faffing or paintwork/ rubber seals etc anymore, crap parts are killing it all over again, i have the camper season till about mid September thankfully, as its daily work/ mot's etc, thats where the profit is these days :) the mots are busy, and giving me plenty to do thanks to the new testable items, it pays the daily bills..
