So, how did our Elfin mates go at PI?

Trevor Lambert in the ME5...
.....and Steve Webb in the 360 Brabham.....
usually seem to be evenly matched and I love to see the 2 of them battling it out together. It didn't quite work out that way this time. Steve's car ran like clockwork at or near the front while Trevor's exuberance delivered gearbox problems.

Meanwhile, Mark Goldsmith circulated mid-field, clocking up the miles as he comes to grips with his Elfin 400 after a long and comprehensive restoration, much like Ken Stratton with the Tiga.
The car was last raced in 1978. I guess this was the last time it raced.

On another note, this Pantera ran very well for a first-timer, up at the front with Steve.
...and there's no show without Larry and Saggy.

That second photo isn't Webb in Henry's 360. That's the VDS McLaren M8F, possibly with Jason White in 2018.
