I like they way that half the video has been mirrored so the air intake on the bonnet moves from one side to the other between shots rolleyes

Nice video though smile

What's the story?

When was that filmed and in what race series was it running, looks very interesting.

The only non speed 12 cerb I recall racing in period was the Mole Valley Speed 6 car.

It is that car, the old Martin short car. There was one other non speed 12 racer. The ajp gt2 car. However I don't believe it competed many times.

That looks like the old Roll Centre car. I remember them pushing it off a trailer at Mania in 2003 at Duxford.

The AJP engined GT2 car raced regularly in the British GT series and also competed in the international series. It was driven for us by Colin Blower, Tiff Needell and Nigel Greensall. I think that it holds the record for being the only GT2 car to win a race outright when it was declared the winner of a foreshortened race at Donington in August '97. (The race was stopped due to a car being on fire and the results posted from postions on the previous lap........the car on fire was the Cerb!!)
Before we ran the car it was run by the factory (During 1994-95?)and was driven by Mark Hales amongst others. I think that it now resides in Blackpool and is still in 'retirement'.
Hope that this helps and best regards, Tony Abrams

Martin Shorts old Cerbera GTO - formerly the Rollcentre racer. Sold to a team in Belgium, then I believe it was sold to someone in France where it currently resides. Another car that seems to have gone into retirement. I'd love to see this an the ex-Colin Blower/ HHC AJP car racing side by side sometime, or at the very least I'd like to see both up close and personal. Both great cars, hopefully they'll come out of hiding again soon. thumbup
