Question for Chris
I'm genuinely interested in your comment about the brakes being "of the period" or something similar.
Is this a comparison to modern road cars or race cars? Do you mean feel or stopping power?
I would have thought that even though it was 1987 the brakes would have been pretty awesome on such a machine, I mean its not that long ago, I was 10 at the time.....

Great vid, car, bloke!
That said if Mr.Harris has now got a taste for dishing up nice retro Le mans racers then this should surely be next up. The Porsche sounded good but not quite this good!

Then if the 962 experience has sparked Chris' enthusiasm for mega power to weight combined with mega noise then a call to Mr White Jr to see if he could dust off the predator for a 15 minute run/interview would be awesome! Arrows V10, uber aero, not very heavy!

Keep em coming please!

I had always been brought up cheering for the somewhat more powerful yet unreliable Lancia LC2's but as a young boy have lovely memories of watching both these cars go head to head at the 1000kms at Silverstone.
Mr Harris, I never seen you so quiet during a video, what a fantastic experience to cherish.
Your really bringing some fantastic input to Pistonheads, cheers.

What a wonderful car. Chris, you're a lucky, lucky man.
The best part of that video for me was the interview with Mr. Singer. It's inspiring to see a man who beyond his ground-breaking advances in motor sport engineering is still so passionate about his expertise and is so engaged with passing his knowledge on. His students are very privileged indeed.
