Doggone it... MS, I think your method of posting pictures results in ones that are blocked on my work computer. If the odds of my actually knowing your cars were more than 1 in 75 I'd be pretty annoyed!

Metalshapes, I see that you are uploading your pics from Photobucket. You can also upload them directly to Autopuzzles.com, this is one of the niceties offered here. And I think that ftg3plus4 (what a name, dammit) and everyone would see them.

I have added your pic directly so to solve ftg...'s problem

This is annoying me now - I remember reading an article about that car a few years ago but the mag it was in has gone.

I think it was british and it is running on Motorcycle tyres with 45 degree negative camber. Am I on the right lines?
