Brighton Speed Trials 2010

[Frank Catt]

Who is competing this year ? See below pictures of the car we are running this year on its first shake down, one of the very earliest cars ever to compete in a race, ( Paris - Dijon ) , should be fun getting that past scrutineering ! Frank

Crikey Frank, no helmet, no aero package, narrow tires, suspect brakes, limited power, how the heck are you going to make it?:stunned:
Good luck mate I would love to be there.:thumbsup:

 

[Tony Hunt]

Good for at least a sub 12 seconds, I reckon.

Lucky it is road registered or you might have needed a roll cage! We have got an entry with the '40 if it is ready by then and we hope to be faster than your car. Of course, if it is wet you might have an advantage over the 1000 bhp Skylanes, etc.

Hope to see you there.

P.S. It will look a bit incongruous with a driver wearing full race suit and helmet as per the regulations.

Speed Trials tomorrow - we are quite definately going to have the longest ET ever !

 

[Pete McCluskey.]

Good luck Frank, have a terrific time.

 

[Frank Catt]

Wanna know the time for quarter ?? 48.2 seconds / 24mph terminal in the wet !

 

[Malcolm]

shit Frank, thats only a couple of seconds slower than your time in a 40!

 

[Dalton Veitch]

Frank, may I suggest towing a small blacksmiths shop behind you, in case you need any replacement parts en route. And have a great adventure!

i take it there was a headwind? i wonder what you could have done in the dry?

 

[Frank Catt]

Glen, no - that was wind assisted !

Frank,

Love the car, and probably faster than I will be in my 40 when it's done.
