HEEL-AND-TOWNACE: Mid-90s Grip Fridge
February 20, 2012 4:24 pm“Hey, let’s put down some lap times at the circuit!”
“OK, I’ll bring my Townace!”
“What?”
I kid you not, this Townace was indeed set up for grip driving. Check it out, gloves, harness and everything.
He mustn’t take it out too often though, as the Yokohama Grand Prix M7R tyre hasn’t been in production for over five years.
This set still seemed to be in pretty good condition though, and those Hayashis aren’t bad either.
A quick check of the suspension sees lowering blocks on the back…
…and adjusted torsion bars, a swaybar and what look like short-stroke sports dampers on the front.
Weird!
