G'day Derek

Noticed a photo of the rear of a Jensen 541. Did you get a chance to look at
its engine?

Gorgeous car and my favourite production coupe from the 1950s, but fitted
with their original 4-litre Austin six-cylinder its performance could be
best called lugubrious.

Hi All

I was at Silverstone today for the HSCC meeting. Lots of interesting cars
and 5 Healeys including Rinus Simke's well known, yellow Big Healey driven
(very fast) by his son Jaap. Plenty of American iron including ex racing
cars of Dan Gurney, Al Unser and Peter Gethin.

When I was taking photos of Rinus' Healey on the pit wall I found myself
standing next to a very understated Christian Horner, Chief of the Red Bull
F1 Team. He was sharingthe driving of an E-Type with F1 designer Adrian
Newey. Not a Red Bull logo in sight.

You can see the photos here
