[Healeys] BN2 Door Quirk

[Michael Oritt]

Bob--

I did the very same thing when I was taking a portion of VSCCA's Driving
School at Poconos in the 100, and I used to have a photo of me on the track
with the door partially open.

The solution of course is to either cut the cord or wear a knee brace.

Best--Michael Oritt
