Southern GT do a GTD to southern GT top hung pedal box which has a balance bar if you wish to go that route. Cheaper than tilton. If you are keeping servos then if you have 4 pot fronts and the rear cosworth ie GTD uprated rear brakes then that is not a bad balance on the original GTD pedal...

If you are going near a race track with your car then the AP option is the best route. They won't let you down as it is what they are made for. Your rear brakes are your weak point so at least change to the cosworth caliper scorpio disc at the rear then a 4 pot system up front will work with...

This is so sad. Knew Roy for 26 years and he was very inspirational to me both within and without the GTD40 Car Club. An amazing chap who had an extraordinary life story. I hope the video Andrew sent some of us can be linked to here as it sums up Roy so well and returned a smile to my face...

1 inch in front of the other? New one on me so would beg to differ on that statement!

cut out the Irish pub and the Belgian beer and its pretty accurate!!!!

Frees Suzi up for TG?

Might have been TR6? But still Triumph..... Or just cut the spline off and weld on a removable steering wheel boss which makes getting in and out easier all round!

I have a good trip coming up on Remembrance Weekend and seems I have been given more of a star billing than expected! On 6th to 8th November at Anglesey Race Circuit Mission Motorsport are running their 2015 Race of Remembrance event and it is a great event and one I am pleased to be part...

Was due to go to the semi final between Australia and Argentina, tickets bought in the vain hope of a northern hemisphere team playing in it! Hopes dashed so anyone interested in them? Face value £350 each, two available.

Definitely Cortina and when you mount it raise it up 5/8 inch to reduce your bump steer!

Air has to be taken from the high point in an engine else it gets trapped. Hence the GTD take off point. Some aftermarket inlet manifolds at the rear of the engine have been known to cause issues depending on how they feed water across the heads so sometimes a bleed line is taken from the rear...

There are two stages to bleeding the air from a GTD, you let the air in the engine out at the engine end and you let the air in the rad out at the radiator end. Simple. Once you have driven the car a short way repeat the exercise and it is soon done. Once the rad is full of water where can...

Ditto comments above, a very enjoyable day out and very much looking forward to seeing the results when released. A lot of effort was taken to get it right so thanks again to those who made it happen.

Good news, have managed to rearrange and also to get another 40 to come with me so please put me and Charles on the list again.

Disappointed to say that at the moment I too will be unable to get there although trying to find a work around to make it so. Sorry Paul.

I have built both a Dax Cobra and a GTD 40 albeit a long time ago for both. Whilst ok at mechanics I do not consider myself a body worker of any skill. The Cobra is a simpler body as less separate parts to join up compared to the 40 and the 40 doors are more complicated to align. However from...

I remember hearing that the late Tony Marsh, a farmer in Hampshire, used his 600 bhp GTD Mk2 to take vegetables the local market once! The oddest use of my car was as a nappy changing table for my daughter when she needed a change at Goodwood! Just had to make sure she didn't roll onto the...

If not already noted please can you add my name to the list, thanks. Only caveat is that I am due to have the car with Mick Sollis for a short period so hopefully the two won't clash. Will be coming via trailer. Malcolm MacAdam

For F1 and Indycar you can't see the drivers driving from external coverage of the car so enclosing the cockpit will reduce the risk for the drivers. All the recent deaths have been from impacts to the helmet. Not one had a cause of death stated as internal injuries. Maybe that will be the...
