Interesting to see this Rover P6 running with the Super Touring group. British Leyland built one such competition lightweight example powered by a Traco Oldsmobile V8. I believe they built just two cars, from what was intended to be 1000 units built to homologate the car for Group 2 racing. The Traco Olds powered car raced briefly in the UK before BL shut down its competition department and it was eventually bought by Jim Smith in Australia, who raced it as a Sports Sedan in the early 1970s. That car was registered JXC 808D, as is this one. Is this the same car, or a very well built recreation?

Doesn't the roll cage ruin the looks of the "Toothpaste Tube" Connaught, (#8 in Steve's post above).

Several of the cars have rollcages fitted, but the one on the Connaught definitely messes with the shape a little more, at least from that angle.
