GBRM should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

Was it not beaten in races by Norman Abbott in his Escort or Gerry Marshall in Old Nail or did it not run against any of the top line cars/drivers to begin with?

I do have a great film of a race from Lydden Hill in 1971 when Run Baby Run was beaten and it certainly wasn't a mechanical failure that day!!

driftwood - The Capri that Tony S had was Mick Hill's old car, I don't know about Brode's car. I'll check CCC tonight, there's a great article from early '74 with a picture of all the cars on the front and then inside a review on each car and driver.

If it helps I could always ask Brode directly.
