I just remembered something. You fellows in the UK have right hand drive cars but right hand shift, per originals. However, your daily drivers are right hand drive center shift. So, the question is how much does that hamper your driving in quarter mile and track events? I know that the times I've rented cars in the UK I've had a hell of a time adapting to shifting with "the wrong" hand. Seems it would make a difference, especially in a sprint or quarter mile event where there isn't a lot of time and gearchanges mean a lot.
My car is right hand drive but right hand shift so it is perfectly normal to me, I'm just displaced 2 feet to the right of my normal position. Any of you have right hand drive but center shift that might lend some info?
I got an idea! Paul and Roy, you need to mount some slicks, deflate those tires, soften that spring preload and let me drop the hammer on that thing at Brighton - if I don't get it in the 11s I promise I'll break something to make it worthwhile!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
