Rohan,

Thanks for sharing the photos. Keep showing those "B" owners how it's done!

I'm jealous because I guess it's the beginning of summer down your way. This coming January, my daughter will be enrolling at Bond University near Sydney. Too bad she doesn't need a ride to school!

Hi Ian

Unfortunately not lapping them !!. It is amazing how fast a B can be - strip all the trim out and about 170hp from the engine and they are not slow.
The Elan can still outbrake and out accelerate but it does not have any advantage through the ocrners.

cheers

Holy smokes Frank, talk about 'out of state' tuition! I guess she won't be coming home every other weekend.

And great shots Rohan. Thanks for sharing..
