any more road cars likely to come from Ginetta?

I would love to accept your invitation carnage - but I am afraid Silverstone is outside my ' travelling ' zone now. I am sure you will enjoy racing your G 18 single seater.
I must say Ivor loved designing those cars - in fact Ivor and Trevers were an amazing team. A director's meeting was just an interference to them. One didnt have to wait long before they said ' can we go now '. But to design and build over thirty different models, in as many years - single seaters - sports racing cars, even type approved, crash tested, factory built tax paid cars, was a lasting tribute to them. I cannot think of anyone in our motor industry, large or small, that can equal that record. Wish you well in your race with the G 18.

Hello Mr. Bob, it's nice to read some messages from you. I've read your book last year and I really enjoyed it: so amazing that it took me no more than a couple of evenings to finish; I had the privilege to meet Ivor, Tom and Mark a couple of times; they are still an amazing team on technical side, I'm sorry they lack your abilities in the project management side. But this was the magic in (the good old) Ginetta Cars, few people, each skilled in a specific branch...Bob W said:

I enjoy it very much, as I did my G4. As you say, very impressive work rate!I must say Ivor loved designing those cars - in fact Ivor and Trevers were an amazing team.
