I also learned from Mr Clark at the time that CC were planning on a Group C project based around a Lamborghini engine and a Spice or Tiga built chassis. Possibly as a reaction to Gordon Spice's excellent debut in WSC at the time.
This is partly why the Bimmer programme ended after only one season.
I never quite understod why tey only did the one year, possibly because '83/84 was quite a turbulent period for the regulations and stewards??!!
The Group C programme didn't come off so CC basically disbanded and Dave Cook went off to run various saloons like the Thundersaloons.
I would imagine that if they hadn't decided on the fledgling sportscar idea then they would have continued in Group A with something or other?
