What is equally surprising is that cars such as Diva, Tornado, Peerless and Berkeley were so prolific on the tracks at the time. I also didn't know that the 8100cc CanAm BRM ran in a couple of clubbies at Croft!
Also interesting that over the years, few now bother with competing with cars up to 850cc, 1000cc, 1200cc, 1300cc etc, as they used to. Also that apart from the modern Radicals, Juno's etc, and Lotus 7 copies, so few cars could now be classed as sports racing cars and driven to and from the events.
