    No Ian... That was the LDS based of the BT11 with a 1 1/2 L repco engine.. It’s the LDS based of the Cooper T53 that he raced before that one.. Image Unavailable, Please Login

    The green shell looks much later than the white one - is that allowed for racing, or is it just a fun project?

    OK, it must be the light. The green one looks to have a larger rear screen and concealed hinges

    I’d say just hadn’t got hinges on, doors tied to body.

    Getting back to the Lotus, I tried to balance the carbs yesterday, as it's not idling smoothly and is a bit rough on cruise, and couldn't get the front carb balanced - maybe a twisted butterfly spindle, maybe something worse, so I dropped it off to the local guru to have it checked - hopefully a compression/leak down test will be OK.

    (a) It's his job to see well, I've only got to do as I'm told
    (b) They might not let him in to Tasmania

    That is such a shame, the last circuit in the suburbs of a major city and so much history.

    Sadly inevitable, the value of the land would be the overwhelming consideration for the owners.

    NSW Govt have recently tipped $10m into SMSP so we should be OK in Sydney for year or three, although it will end up as houses too.
