Of course I remember no details >>
<snip> well mjb, do not ask about my magazine storage system, but
I finally found the Dec 1966 Road & Track.
cover listing "Triumph TR-4A on road, track & dragrstip"
contents listing "TR-4A on Salt and Strip- to see how it would do in a
straight line"
p.92 -94 "multi-purpose Triumph"
Kastner goes to Bonneville................
TR4A coupe, IRS, just over 140 bhp, 3.7 non OD 128.20 on webers,
127 plus on SUs.
The article makes it quite clear that the car could have been tweeked
more and the body modified more as well.
