With regard to the photos of the works cars in the latest QB, I was interested to see that the 1965 car has a rear anti-roll bar fitted (as well as the axle strengthening tube).
I never realised that this degree of modification was permitted in the Group 2 class regulations.
Does anybody know why BRM built the engines rather than Cosworth? |

Mike Hall was BRM's head of development in '65 & he held the contract with Lotus to develop the 1594cc 150BHP engines before leaving BRM to join Cosworth & went on to develop the BDA unit. _________________
