Most photo libraries blocked so cannot search and add 🙁
In theory possible via phone but a PITA to add here that way

These things look mental and really not very good for anything but going round an oval!

There was a lot of engineering going on here and sport too (she's just been sport diving for something or other....)

I saw the H16 engine in a christmas display in Regent Street once in the 70's (I think it was 70's). It was in a BRM painted to look like the current V8 car with the Yardley graphics on it. Very excited to spot it.
Sad me....

That BRM H16, how many survive?

I remember reading that Nick Mason had rebuilt one of last known engines.

Unsurprisingly, it sounds like 4 aeroplanes flying by in close formation;

hairs on the back of the neck stuff.

Dez, in that case, both the chair and the athlete are HARDware! Man's an animal!

In a similar vein, trick shock, trick seat, trick ski and awesome athlete!

Some serious engine porn on here, as one might have expected! Thanks for that link, wwwaswas.
