There are two video clips on Instagram from the the first couple of stages and it does sound sweet. A bit slippy on the way down though!Quote:

The Stratos is early on this bit, shot to look like old cine film. I don't know why?:Quote:

Sounding much like the comas car now.
Who has now reverted back to running the with the twin silencer Gp4 type exhaust rather than the 6 in to 1.Quote:

And this one from a post on Steve Perez facebook page! https://www.facebook.com/dave.triggo...2417322458560/
I'm sure a Stratos replica could run in the open class on this event.
Like Mark's Zenith Lister Bell, for example.
That's a much bigger silencer than was shown in the Instagram post.Quote:

I remember being 1st non-Ford in my Simca, 7th overall in one night event!
Struan
I had a quick chat with Steve and his mechanics while they were changing tyres and fuelling up after the hill climb. They said this configuration with the big silencer kept it down to 98db for noise regs. It still sounded amazing though, it really howls!
