Clive Brown should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Just a thought ; is it possible that there were two iterations of Tony Dickinson's second Skoda , the Hart-powered car ? What I have to date been calling ' the second car ' I first saw at the opening round of the Wendy Wools Special Sal;oon championship one season ; could it be that over the winter , Tony and his team had rebuilt the car , changing it from the ex-Cloud Engineering T290 chassis to the T492 chassis that 911thillclimber now owns ? It would certainly have been lighter , and would have had ( amongst other things ) a much smaller fuel cell than a long-distance Group 6 two litre sports car .

This is purely a hypothesis , but it would explain the presence of a discarded T290 tub with Skoda roll cage , lurking in a yard somewhere !
