ERICH - I've been driving a RHD Morgan on the street for 16 years and on the
track for the last three.  Occasionally a little difficult on the street,
it's sometimes a b*tch trying to pass on a narrow country road (usually the
terrified look on my wife's face tells me it's unsafe!) and you must
practice your hook shot for those in-the-basket- toll booths.  But I think
it's a big advantage on the track where most tracks run clockwise and most
turns are right-handers, really helps you to see lines and apexes.  Don't
know if it helps your lap times but it does help your confidence/comfort
zone.

Cheers, Craig Seibert      1968 Morgan  +8     car no. 611      "Duff Morgan

Hello. I have never driven a RHD car before. I am considering buying a
vintage racer, possibly a RHD example.  My concern is making the transition
from LHD to RHD under race conditions. Any thoughts/comments/experience?
Thanks in advance. Erich.
