I did take part in some tests in as I remember a very rough field outside fort William but if I am mentioned in any results I think it would be last place, I was trying so hard that I managed to engage two gears at the same time jamming up the box, and what I remember the most about that was the feeling of panic inside and being so far from home and a car that would not go, It would be great to see any video or record of the event if its available anywhere, we have photos of our car and our kids in Edinburgh outside the RAC headquarters building showing the rear of our car with all our kit tied to the spare wheel . my method of mending the box was to sit in the car dip the clutch and push and pull the gear lever until something moved and it did disengage luck was on my side.I know your Mam and Dad were there I knew him well in the old days he was always very good to me and helped me out on several occasions and remember going to your home was it an area called I think Frampton cotteral not to sure about the spelling , also I remember there were quite a few Bristol club members there I may well have photos of their cars somewhere I will look and see what there is regards Rob.
