Jack, as I said on the day, that was a brilliant drive! You had a smaller engine, lower power car (but beautifully prepared by Bill Rawles) and achieved a great result with smooth, controlled driving and huge cornering speed that the others simply could not match. No drama, no mistakes - a Healey masterclass! Take a bow Jack.
I'd rather watch an hour of this than three hours of current F1 or BTCC. Fantastic driving, fantastic entertainment - superb. And a great video, too. Thank you! 🙂
Absolutely fantastic to watch. The C Type towards the end of the race clearly demonstrating how much work you need to do to stop the rear end snapping away from you.
A wonderful drive Jack. We shivered on the Lavant bank watching this race and your Healey just looked so sorted, and of course driven sublimely. Roll on Revival!
Thank you... Very lucky! OK so I have had my GP6 for 10 years, I loved it but wanted to 'upgrade' I went for the GP7. I do really like it, it is more suited to open top cars with additional cheek padding that stops the air from going under the helmet. I feel it is less buffeting at high speed to. However, it has a noticeably smaller visor opening so can feel a little more cramped and limits some peripheral vision, in my opinion. My advise would be, GP6 for closed cockpit and GP7 for open cockpit/both. If you need a good helmet painter, send me a DM on Instagram and I can give you his details.
@@TheRawles46 Thank you for your honesty and being so humble. I just came to edit my question as yours is the carbon version isn't it. Three times the price but all comments made stand for both. Mine is open top too. Think I shall have to check first as peripheral vision is paramount. I shall be in the market for a nice Healey soon so I shall keep checking your website. 👍🏻
@@TheRawles46 Oh? Well that's good news for me as the carbon one is too much to justify for my road car use. All the best and thank you for your message.
