on who they are and what outfit/engine they are using.

The Rowbury's are two brothers that race with the CRMC. I think they race solo's as well. The Suzuki is a Kettle and races in period 4.
They had loads of problems with it last year but seem to have got it sorted now because it's fast.

I thought the original motor was a 'Kettle' but the current one is a TR

Period 4 is post classic.
I think they had a few of problems with their engine last season, so bought the current motor. It`s a TRish engine, they bought from someone who used to sprint with it and it`s a pretty quick motor.
