    Interesting the variation on gear lever length.. stubbiest I've seen is MX-5 and longest, about a foot, is the Koenigsegg.

    I put new momo knob on Skyline and didn't go down as far as thought so ended up being tad taller than standard.. but after giving it a trial run on road and track I've decided that's not so bad after all so will keep it that way!

    Back to topic: no idea that car! Brit since RHD? They have so many interesting low volume makes but I still can't narrow it down yet.

    It's had some miles under it's belt by looks so next clue: circa?

    Clue: Sequential gearbox ... which is why it's got the big lever.

    Seems "the go" with such gearboxes, witness V8's etc.. surprisingly small movements despite the length..

    Still no closer on the clue though lol.

    ok...so the clues make me believe it's a yellow/orange car with a sequential gearbox and it isn't a zonda.

    how am i doing?

    Looks like a Westfield XTR to me.

    Could also be a Radical SR of some kind, that would match your Zonda clue.

    yeah...I'm quite astute.

    Looks like a fun car, and how good are bike engines?? Amazing stuff.

    Are there prizes for guessing this time?

    You get to lap in a random car at some undefined time. Probably. I think that ties in pretty nicely with the astuteness. :D
