That surely has to be a time attack car of some sorts. Im not sure why but it continues to remind me of the Nissan Saurus, although that was not a time attack car

I can see why you think it would be raced in that form of motor sport, but actually it's not. Nothing to do with Nissan.

Nothing was gonna stop me from finding this car. Cowley Mk.4 for 750 Formula. I literally looked through categories of motorsport championships and came across 750 Formula. Saved my butt from giving up!

Perseverance pays off!  It's extraordinary how advanced modern 750 Formula cars have become - not exactly what was intended by the club in the early days, but even these great little cars are relatively cheap to build and run.

One point to you. (PS built by Bill Cowley )
