Re: Where are they Now?

Roger, Thank you for that. Perhaps John levered the twin cam from his Cortina? That gives me a lead, anyway, and I hope that someone will nudge Mike Duncan to be in touch. Crikes- perhaps I met Mike Duncan all those years ago! I have been in touch with Martyn at Pickersleigh Road, but so far not a w...

Re: Where are they Now?

Hello Mark. Well done. It's amazing how the mind can play games for I could have sworn that John McKechnie's Morgan was mostly blue.But it was nearly 44 years ago that I last cast eyes on it. All his cars, though, were immaculately presented. 997cc- would that have been a Ford Anglia engine? One of ...

Hello Peter,
Shouldn't that be Strictly Come Dancing with his footwork?

Re: Where are they Now?

Good morning Andy, A little detective work has not found any more information on John McKechnie, but a surprising (to me) find on the internet which you will most certainly know about. Go to www.leadfoot-festival.myshopify.com/pages/drivers-2 where you will find an article concerning a yellow 1955 +...

Re: Where are they Now?

Hello Andy, Have just returned from 10 days in the Lake District and am catching up. I haven't yet been able to access the results from Saturday but will have another go in a minute. In answer to your question concerning colour schemes, and this is from memory, the major colour on all his cars was a...

Re: Where are they Now?

Good Morning Ladies and Gentlemen. Nearly a year after the last posting on this thread, and three and a half after a name I recall from the 1960s, John McKecknie, perhaps I could make some connections about John, previously mentioned by Bob Bull and Tim Hill from their results cards. I am unable to ...

Re: A World First

Good to see you,too,Bob,especially before 8 in the morning,and all the Morganistas. Good clean racing in the Fordwater, but to my mind there was too much damage in total over the weekend. For instance, the Bryant's Cobra,(just one example),which has only in the last few weeks been returned to pristi...

Re: Lawrencetune Badges Wanted

Hello again, Andy. Some months ago there were badges still available from the chap who has the website. Try writing an e-mail to sales@lawrence-tune.co.uk. I doubt that you'll receive an immediate reply, but might be worth the wait if you are unable to find the badges elsewhere. The firm that deals ...

Re: Lawrencetune Badges Wanted

Hello Andy,
There is a modern Lawrence Tune website, selling badges for £50 a go.
www.lawrence-tune.co.uk, I think.
With very best wishes,

Re: TYRE PRESSURE

Hello Martin, Although I'm not racing now I remember all too well the routine before a race. Kelvin is spot on with the pressures, to be used in the rain, too, and perhaps some of the drivers may have had slight changes front over rear according to their driving skills, but I would add that you will...

Re: R380 gearbox bits

Hello Philip, Am intrigued- do you have a transfer box, too, for when the going gets tough? Pop down to Northleach, through the traffic lights and first left into Midwinter Road. There you will find Bob Houghton Ferrari. The service manager is Russell Smith; both he and Bob Houghton are very friendl...
