420SE?

Also aren't you setting a dangerous precedent by including non-factory models?

Did the factory not make any turbo's then.
I thought they did make a 420SE

I think if they was made from new, (not later converted) they should be in the time line.
but the cars that have since been uprated.

I thought they did make some 420SEs.

It appears that three 2.8 V6 turbo cars were made but no 200 turbo cars. The initial list omits some factory cars but includes some aftermarket ones. It reads a bit like a best mates list.

Can do this if nobody else wants their 450 up there.

[TVRleigh_BBWR]

What's a Tasmin FHC
as you have listed

Tasmin 2+2 FHC
Tasmin 200 FHC
280i FHC
Mk1 350i FHC

Not sure if my 4.0 FHC would qualify

It's superflous on the 2+2. Will Oulton be your first race Leigh?

I hope to be out before then.
there's a 10% chance I'll be at Anglesea, 19-20 July
70% chance I'll be out at Silverstone 9-10 August
90% Chance of Brans 6th September
70% Chance of Oulton Park, (If Im not ready by Brans then I'll have a serious problem.

Ah, just for a moment there I thought that you were factoring in the chances of 'racing incidents.'

Trying not to think about that.

Don't worry, once the "red mist" descends, you won't be doing much thinking about anything ;^)

[BadRedWedge]

Why do we have to be so purist ? if its a wedge then stick it in the time line

[TVRleigh_BBWR]

well if it was converted last year then it will be hard to timeline it.

If it was converted from new then I say let it in.

[BadRedWedge]

If the time line consisted of pure factory, none modified cars it would be a very short line. We should have a line up of the best examples we can find. ( IMHO )

....and the worst. Stop being a toff. ;-)

OK, and the worst, but no Griefs

[Gandalf]

Well we`re having a line of 1st owner of each model, that can be there on time, to mail me goes in the timeline.
Not got he time to pussyfoot about arguing about this that or the other!

First come first served - Those who want to dispute entries can argue over a cars eligibility at the Hog Roast - assuming you`ve paid!

[FlipFlopGriff]

Steve,
Would be happy to go in the timeline if you need us.
I would say its as original as you can get other than the SS exhaust.
9am may be a stretch as will getting an MOT by then.
