That's who I was talking about - Neil & Lorna Wright. The pic reminded me of their team name, and I looked up the website - they are still rallying and road racing FCs, now out of Ottawa.

Some detail about the general setup is there (eventually upgraded to HotBits coilovers/remote reservoir struts, iirc). The pics show the ride height is pretty stock - and lots of skid plate on the underbody
