Re: Techniques Trophy Race 2011
Hi Guys,
If anyone is interested I have uploaded the video from the camera that I strapped on Tim Harrison's 4/4. It's quite interesting in that everyone in the race except Chas is on the video.
Watch it at http://www.vimeo.com/27726647
Cheers
Jono

Re: Techniques Trophy Race 2011
Love the video -
Barry - you now have the evidence to charge Ian for the tyres on VMO if you look at the giant lock up at 2.00 mins!
Bob - bad news Ian weighs pretty much the same as Barry - its just the distribution that is different!
Great Event - well done to Brian for organising and all who took part

Chas’s engine is post 1980 so that would count as the datum not the chassis
but any other way to get the classic plus 4s racing and the other cars to make a fuller grid would be fine

Re: Techniques Trophy Race 2011
I have posted pictures from both the Challenge and the TT on the usual site as well as a few 'faces'. The good the bad and the ugly!*
*Referring to my snaps of course.
Jack, we had a telly but we often had it off.

...........
Yes I got an e mail on Sunday to say that he had died.. Apparently he had been very ill in recent months.

Re: Techniques Trophy Race 2011
Great pictures Bob. I particularly like the one of Jeff Stows car and Simon Gurneys car. They are both ex John McDonald and I would think it is the first time they have been photographed together for a long time.
Simons car PGP (Or Choc Ices as it is known ) was Chris Lawrences first customer car and raced with Chris in the early years.
It is very sad to hear of his demise - although not totally unexpected as he has been quite ill of late.Truly the passing of an era - and a legend in the Morgan world.
Do we know anything about funeral or memorial yet?

Re: Techniques Trophy Race 2011
The 60th anniversay Plus 4 day at Prescott Sept 25th sounds like a good opportunity to celebrate the guy who put the Plus 4 on the Map!

Re: Techniques Trophy Race 2011
A thread on Chris Lawrence can be found on the 'Autosport' magazine's 'Nostalgia Forum', and contains tributes, and memories of Chris. It might be worth a look over the next week or so.
