Nice but isn't the hose blocking air flow to the fan?

Graham taking the ‘Max Verstappen’ line

Great pic

Ha!
I think it is a Lola T492, one of the early ones though the roll cage is not FIA spec.

Gave the car a good run last night, picked my son up and then we stopped at the chippy on the way home.

Gear selection was lovely - just felt a little hesitant at higher Revs so a bit of investigation required

When I went on my long journey of short-throw shifters, engine mounts and linkages etc i finished up with stock tower shifter, stock bushes in the drive train and linkage bushes (you have just changed) with a plain hole in graphite impregnated bushes, not 30 years old.
The box has been rebuilt by Mike in the Lakes.

Sometimes a bit reluctant to drop from 3rd to 2nd at low revs, no noises though.
Shift up well at all revs, reverse selects without issues.

I'm sure it is 'just' a 'touch' of adjustment still, but I'll live with it but it is always a slight niggle.
Some days it is perfect.
I just put it down to how the old thing is on the day.

Your 911 looks a reasonable size against the MPV.

I think the angle of the photo was deceiving - looked diddy against it really

The hesitancy wasn’t gear related - I felt a slight underfuelling at high revs

It’s on PMOs isn’t it?

I’m cocking around today with different jets to see what works best. Not really my area of expertise but it’s interesting.
