A few pictures and comments for our shows at Billing (LRE) and Stonleigh (LRO) 2001

Presenting Steve Green's incredible Rover 4.5 V8 powered
MK1 Cortina

Steve's Machine


Just in case you thought we were kidding about how fast it is!
Here's an action shot at the start of the 1.4 mile run and before the deployment of the parachute.
It should be renamed Lift-Off!


Our Show at Stoneleigh

Engine Display

A few of our Engines 3.5-4.6 ltr. On show just before we got fully set up.

  Jigsaws

And some interesting Framed Jigsaws, sadly no longer available

 
Landy 4.6 Auto camper

Land Rover Defender 4.6 auto and my 5.2 Range Rover. Showing off ready for the crowds.

  Active LPG Mixer

The 4.6 motor neatly runs LPG through an active Mixer inside the filter of the Weber 500 Carb shown here.

 
MG 3.9 Injection

This 3.9 EFi powered MG will pull 5th from 600rpm (15mph) all the way to 105mph in 3rd, (that means about 150 in top). Amazing yet so simple.

  Happy customers

Some very happy customers enjoying our hospitality and ordering a 3.9 RPi V8 with Weber 500 and Mallory ignition for their Land Rover Defender.

 
Engines on show

With so many fine V8s on offer, the choice is at least difficult, as you can see.

  Dragster

Steve Green's 4.5 V8 powered MK1 Cortina hits 162mph in 8.2 seconds, no wonder it needs a weely bar and parachute.


Also on show.

Tim Phelps 5.2   Tim Phelps' RPi V8 Powered 5.2 Rally Car.

It's an amazing vehicle and we are very proud to have it shown on our Stand.
Tim is hitting top spots with this vehicle in only its first season, and with the power he has on tap, traction is still his biggest issue.
