yeah i think that one is based in belgium.

at the stoneleigh kit car show i had a ride in Robin Vincents very ovn Hurricane which has a V8 in it. I also had a drive of a 1500 based hurricane. I am used to driving a VW polo so it felt very strange. I've never driven a classic more than manovering. I am sure i will grow to love it. You sit low and the steering lock is about 2 1/2 turns lock to lock. go cart style...

At the time they were current speed ratings were not as rigorous as they are today. It's still possible, though - I put a new set on my E a couple of years ago and the only problem was that the choice is very limited. For example, I couldn't get the Dunlop SPs that I really wanted as the EEC decided they were not up to the job (it may have changed by now - I heard that the manufacturers had re-applied).
