RE: Calum and Iain Duffy: PH Meets

[Schtum]

By January '75, no-one who was cool was still wearing loon pants. Two years before I first went to the Tour of Mull.....nah, long gone!

It's very hard to convey to anyone who hasn't been to Mull just how challenging the roads are at lower speeds, let alone competitive ones. In the days before the roads were closed and it was still a road rally run by the Mullard 2300 Club, it was even more so.

I still think it would also be a great venue for a Scottish mini Moto Tour and it'd be yet another event to extend the Muileachs' tourist season.

Quick buggers. BDA or Pinto pumps out 250 brake or more.


Mk1 is nice but MK2 - dad had one - still my favorite.


Money no object Mk2.

The 'modern' spec Mk2's are seriously quick Cars. Many have Millington Engines which can thump out the thick end of 300bhp with a good torque spread too.
BDA's (and BDG's) tend to be the preserve of the genuine Historic Cars, not sure what's in Calum Duffy's Car, but I'd expect it's a Millington rather than a BD.

Edit... should have read the article first... but I was right anyway.

Worth every penny - the DS2+ is a true engineering masterpiece.
