George Alderman tests the view behind the wheel of his newly acquired 1933 Austin Seven. The team is hard at work scouring the rulebook to see which autocross class the car will fit in.
Back around 1980 when I was campaining a SP 68 Triumph GT6, George showed up in a Cobra kit car, as I recall. His car was suffering overwhelming oversteer, and each run had resulted in George doing donuts on the track, after fishtailing down several pylons. I asked his team if they would let me adjust the suspension, they said sure, and I quickly disconnected one of the rear swaybar end-links. No more oversteer. I recently called their Machine Shop, and the guy that answered was there 30 years ago and remembered my assistance.
