Many thanks for the pics and info, I have put them up on the teamgridlock.co.uk website
Still have a few holes to fill up especially the 1996-2003 period when I think it was owned by Keith Ridgley
Thanks again

There is still a big gap after the King Brothers had the car to when Paul Martin had it, has anyone got any info on this or anything else please?
Need any info on when (we think) Keith Ridley owned the car, any snippets would be good.

Just a snippet of info - when the car had the Rover V8, it was an early car to use Nitrious Oxide. On the startline at the pod it suffered an almighty backfire in the hoodscoop and the startline crew dived to the ground!!
thanks for the info, does anyone have any times the car ran?
thanks
thanks
Found out a little more about the car
It was apparently built in 1979 by Performance Engineering and raced at Blackbushe in July 1980 by Andy Craddock with a Rover V*, the car was put up for sale at this event as Andy was moving up to Top Fuel
SANTA POD AUGUST '80 -- Steve Clark was driving the Frontline Video T when the fibreglass scoop disintegrate when the carb exploded on the line (see post by Flying Phil)
SANTA POD SEPT '80 -- Andy Craddock was back out at the Pod in the Frontline Video Rover T altered with a new carb scoop after the August explosion
Not much more but every little helps, anyone got anything more?
