This
car competed in the HSCC 2 Litre GT Championship race at the Historic Sports
Car Club's Spring Race meeting at Oulton Park in May 1987.
Two brothers, Peter and Clive
Radnall came up with the idea of putting a tuned Mini engine in the rear of a
lightweight race car and the first of these vehicles was named the Landar R1. A
series of cars followed culminating in the Landar R6 - at this meeting it was
shown as a Landar MkVI and was driven by Terry Carthy. The only other information
about the car in the programme of the event is that it had a 1,293cc engine. When
the Radnall brothers ceased production of the cars the moulds were sold in the
USA and it is thought that more of the cars were built there.
