[edit] Merge
Both articles are about the same thing. The only question seems to be which remains as the main article. -De Facto 11:25, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
- In fact they /are/ differennt cars. Railton Special has been edited to clarify. I've removed the merge request. - De Facto 16:31, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Racing car template
I've had a stab at a template for racing cars (see template:Racing car) to summarise the usual data. I've used the F1 templates as a starting point and applied it to the Brabham BT46 article. If anyone's got an interest in this, please have a look at the template and modify or suggest changes as appropriate. After a few people have had a go at it and we have something we're happy with we could start to use it more widely. Note that it's not meant to be specific to F1, by the way. Cheers. 4u1e 10:20, 2 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Template attempt
I've had a go at using the template and added info which I believe to be relevant. I'm having trouble with the code though and it's a bit of a mess. Not sure how to tidy it up and make it presentable for inclusion in the artical.
