Watching the faster TR6s navigate corner 12, they all appear
to take it in third, shifting to fourth midway down the
following straight.

Watching the movie at approximately 3:15 and 4:59 mark we see
Tony Garmey zipping along in the TR250K and changing up shortly
after hitting the apex.

It appears to me that either Tony was short-shifting by
500 rpm (???) or so, or he was running a very different set of
drivetrain ratios.  Another Kas secret?

Andre, is there a way to obtain a copy of this video in the original
format, from an ftp site?  I'd love a copy, and I swear I will not
use it for anything other than my own lustful desires.  =8O
I'll likely not see these cars together again.
