I hope you guys enjoy these two articles. (Click on the links below.) I think they're a nice change of pace.

Ron Goldleaf's WRE Shadow Formula 5000 Racecar</a> was built in California... but designed by an Englishman named John Wadsworth. It's the only one of its kind, you're not likely to find much information about this car anywhere else, and I figured it needed a good home. (19 photos)
Are these headers awesome or what!

Mike Knittel's Chinook Mk12 Formula 5000 Racecar</a> was built in Toronto... but its design could easily be mistaken for a Lotus 70 - it even has a bunch of Lotus components on it although the monocoque tub and and bodywork are different. It's the only one of its kind, you're not likely to find much information about this car anywhere else, and I figured it needed a good home. Besides, it will be really interesting to compare this car to a real Lotus 70 when we get an article put together on one of those... (31 photos)
Okay Ford fans, recognize these?

Thanks Phillip!
You can always find the whole list of race car articles by scrolling to the top of this page and pointing your mouse at the "button" that says "Photo Galleries". When the pull-down menu magically appears, click on "BritishRaceCar.com". These two articles are listed at the bottom of the race car index.
I'm almost ready to add one more article there. If you like the Tony Settember car, you'll love this one:
