Tyrrell P-34... 6 Wheel Formula One Racecar

Image
Interesting car of the day. Designed by Derek Gardner and built by Tyrrell in the late 70's. The front tire arrangement provided better down force to the front and allowed more powerful braking systems. The biggest drawback was the lack of development by the tire manufacturer to keep up with the pace of change.  Website dedicated to the P-34   http://www.project34.co.uk/images/logos/logo2.png Other car stuff Journalist blows up rare Porsche racing engine   http://adventuresinmikeslife.blogspot.ca/2013/01/more-stuff-for-gearheadsjournalist.html My Plymouth RoadRunner   http://adventuresinmikeslife.blogspot.ca/2011/12/boy-and-his-carspart-two.html My 57 Chev wagon    http://adventuresinmikeslife.blogspot.ca/2011/12/boy-and-his-cars.html 4 Door Ford Maverick race car   http://adventuresinmikeslife.blogspot.ca/2012/04/maverick-magic-trick.html
