I have been watching the 24 Hour race on pay TV.  Great footage. Reminds me
of doing 4 laps prior to the 2000 race in the ex-works streamlined Sprite
that was raced in the 1966, 67 and 68 race. Identified as UK license HNX456D
this was the last AH raced by Donald Healey.  1293cc and 154mph down
Mulsanne straight in 1968. It still took a long tome to do the 8 mile lap in
2000.  7200rpm in 5th gear down Mulsanne. It was awarded the trophy for the
Best Finishing car in 1967 & 68.

Check out eBay you can buy two similar  ex-works Sprites right now

PS all the sparks were Lucas
