When I have been to circuits in the UK with my GTD I have always been quicker than the 360s there - but my car has been fairly extensively modified. Also, the GTD40 car club race every year against the Ferrari Owners Club who have 360s amongst them - and usually beat them. This year for...

Re: Duke Video \'Ford GT40 the story\' I have to say that I agree with Keith - that the video where Clarkson drove the GT40 was much better. However, this DVD is still worth getting IMHO. Does anybody know if the CLarkson footage is available on DVD instead of video (which I have already)?

Re: Duke Video \'Ford GT40 the story\' I have just bought the DVD and thought that it was good but could have been a lot better. The highlights for me were: * the female owner of the rather nice MKI who I discovered must live just up the road from me in Tilford. Must look her up! * the...

Charles, Are children invited? Martin

I used to push my GTD in and out of my garage in Putney on my own without problem. I also owned a Boxster S and can tell you that it was a lot easier to move the GTD than it was the Boxster. However, I never needed to push it in on my own as I always used to be surrounded by enthusiasts as...

Re: Roush 402IR or Ford racing crate motor? Will a ZF will handle that amount of torque?

Rick, Thanks for the headsup. I will be calling him for further details Martin

Unfortunately my in-car footage of the parade lap of the Le Mans Classic managed to get the tops of the trees and little else as I hadn't correctly checked the angle of the camcorder before setting off (doh!) However, I am very keen to get any footage that I can of my car on the Le Mans...

All the current officers are planning to stand for re-election but we are planning on adding a social secretary position to the committee as well. So if anybody wishes to stand for this position, please notify me as soon as possible. Thanks, Martin

Re:Ford GT delivery Well if they are in Europe, I certainly haven't seen any in the UK other than the press car that turned up for magazine tests and some tv shows.

I am going the opposite way - I have two Holleys at present (a 650 and a 750 double pumper) and am moving to Weber 48 IDAs - awesome!

JP If you are referring to the David Brown in NZ, as far as I am aware, he would not be in a position to handle the kind of volumes that Superperformance would need. Martin

Guys I was very lucky. I escaped without injury and the car ended up with just damage to the paintwork and a bent suspension arm. I managed to still go out for another timed run after that incident and managed to come 4th in our group. The car will be back in action for Brighton - see you...

Very nice Hersh! Are they Chris's GW Valve covers that you are using?

Simon, I think you will find that your car may indeed be repairable. There have been some GTDs in more severe accidents than your one which have been repaired. MArtin

Malcolm I am not sure I know what you mean. Can you elaborate? Martin

Certainly am!

We have the explosafe in our GTDs that we race but I am unaware of anybody using the locking filler caps. I think that this might be one modification I want to make, but whilst keeping the current original look. When we race, most of us fit cable ties to the filler caps to keep them closed in...

JP Good to see you at Lydden the other day However, I have to disagree with you on this one. Surely it is absolutely the point that, in order to qualify, the cars need to be exact replicas of a car at a particular point in time. Otherwise, it would be completely unfair to let a "replica"...

I have entered Malcolm - see you there! Martin
