Dave,

Perhaps it's a periscope for seeing over taller cars in

front?

A snorkel for driving in the wet?

A steam vent for the boiler?

Pete,

When you gotta go, you gotta go! Isn't that for women, so

they don't have to take that extra pit stop during a race?

Bill

Re: Captions please

I always knew those Dax GT40s were taller than other GT40 reps. Now I've worked out why...

Cheers

Rob

Re: Captions please

OK OK If its the silly photo competition, here is my entry.
Taken at a Silverstone practice day in 1970, I seem to have a lot more hair....and a Martian antenna growing out of my head.
Not quite sure which looks funnier !

Is your nickname "Tinky Winky" ? or maybe "La la" ?
By the way - nice car!

Re: Captions please

Yes it's only got three wheels but it only uses 3/4 of the gas to run it. And does amazing burnouts, too.... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img], did anyone see the last issue but one of OCTANE where they had the Morgans? Fun stuff.

Dave. I don't suppose someone was politely trying to tell you that you were a mobile chicane? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] ... Only kiddin' Dave. After all, a GT40 looks fast standing still [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
