  Do you need a tachograph to tow? 18 Apr 2016 (News)
  Many modern vans and pick-ups are capable of towing more than two or three tonnes. For example, the most powerful version of Ford Ranger pick-up can tow 3.5 tonnes and its gross vehicle weight is 3.2 tonnes, so a vehicle like this would certainly need a tachograph if it were to be used to anywhere near its full towing capacity for business or reward.   If you only drive light vans up to 3.5 tonnes and never do any towing then your vehicle doesn’t need a tachograph.

  Big Event at Castle Combe Next Weekend 6 Aug 2011 (News)
  All three championships have a number of drivers capable of taking top honours, but with only two rounds left after this weekend, all of them will be looking to maximise their points, with the caveat that reliability can be as important as speed. Retaining a healthy but still vulnerable lead in the Castle Combe Formula Ford 1600 championship is Rob Hall in the Swift SC10. In theory, there are a dozen drivers who could mathematically still depose him, but in reality, the fight is between a handful of contenders. Run by the Swift Cooper team next door to the circuit, Hall's car/driver speed 'combo', has rarely been exceeded this year, the last time being at the previous meeting courtesy of the 'guesting' Ben Norton from Bratton.
