| 01/12/2009 | Version 2 - CPC Billet Cam carriers
CPC are now offering a Version 2 of the billet cam carrier to suit the hillman imp engine. The Version 2 cam carrier has a profiled bottom face which means that the carrier remains interchangeable with the standard cast carrier. Some customers have been put off the Version 1 carrier as they were unable to fit the cast carrier back onto the head once the head has been machined.

It requires a lot of work, but will be returned to its original spec and Drambuie livery ready for racing in the CSCC and the HTS.The car has already been back to the factory to have the front & rear bodywork repaired along with the tub, having been crashed last time out.

| 25/04/2011 | Nigel Edwards on the podium for Presidents Cup
Nigel Edwards finished 3rd in the 2011 Presidents Trophy race at Castle Combe in the CPC prepared V6 Marcos. Boxed in at the start of the race, Nigel Edwards dropped back to 8th on the first lap, leaving himself plenty of work to do. Making his way back up the field and with two laps to go, Nigel was in 3rd right with 2nd placed Alan Tice in the 1800 Appendix K Marcos. Nigel was looking like he might make it up to second position but the two held their positions to the flag. Nigel & Myles are next due out in the car on the 7th May at Brands Hatch in the CSCC Swinging Sixties race before heading off to Spa in June, again with the CSCC.
