Saw Ian Ashley out on it at Mallory on TV (the napier) when it hit the wall on the way up to the hairpin.
Roger could tell you more about it, I remember seeing him ride it at Brands.

When I speak to Steve Paul next I will ask him to sort out his photos. I believe he passengered Jack on the mk1 and brought it from him when he built the mk2

I thought the MK2 unorthodox had a cosworth engine in it.
Also it had 2 flat discs which the front wheel fitted in a rotated on.
I only rmember it pointing backwards at the left hander at Lydden, also a trophy for finishing!
