Subject: RE: BS: British Cars!
I had a real liking for Weber carbs, and drove in club races for two years in an Austin A 40, with a two litre race tuned engine and twin Webers.

Went like a two bob rocket off the start, and, lowered to a ride height of four and a half inches, held the road as if it were on rails.

In the second year we actually made more in prize money than it cost.

Then marriage intervened, probably just as well because the cost of going up a grade was well out of reach.
