In 2015, DOE announced that five of its national laboratories will lead in implementing a new $20 million Small Business Vouchers Pilot, a public-private partnership that will connect clean energy innovators across the country with top-notch scientists, engineers, and world-class facilities. With this federal funding, more than 100 small businesses will receive vouchers so they can access considerable lab expertise and tools that will help them test, validate, and introduce new products, expand their businesses, and grow the clean energy sector.
Designed during 1930, Vittorio Jano’s masterpiece Tipo B “P3” #5006 contains major components which are date stamped as early as 1931.
#5006 is the sole surviving first series Tipo B, retaining its original (subsequently factory widened) slim sided body and half elliptic rear suspension (currently, in Peter’s hands, converted to quarter reversed elliptics), which is still being historic raced today.
#5006 is one out of only five Tipo Bs from a total of 13 survivors to have earned Dennis Jenkinson’s accolade of “genuine”.
Scuderia Ferrari Tipo Bs (#5006 prominent amongst them) swept the board from the outset with a stunning first (Tazio Nuvolari), second (Umberto Borzacchini), and third (Rudolf Caracciola) at the 1932 French GP, averaging 90 mph.
Nuvolari (with co driver Giuseppe Campari) then went on to win the Italian GP at over 100 mph, followed by a win at Avus in 1933 at over 128 mph., amazing speeds even by today’s standards, confirming that the “P3” was (and is) truly a long straightaway racing car.
Whilst today, complete and specific Tipo B race histories are unclear, first private/ independent owner Georges Raph advised John Vessey that he chose #5006 “because it was successfully raced by Achille Varzi and Georges Comotti”.
Varzi’s wins alone in 1934 included the Bordino, Tripoli, Penya Rhin, and Nice GPs, together with the Targa Florio and Coppa Ciano, whilst Comotti pulled off the win at the Comminges GP – an amazing record!
After #5006’s illustrious service with Scuderia Ferrari, it was released in 1935 to Georges Raph, whose placings included French GP 2nd, GP de la Marne 7th, Dieppe GP (retired – fractured carburetor floats), Circuit of Comminges 2nd, plus 1936 Circuit of Pau (place unknown).
Post war #5006 went straight back to work, winning events at Curragh, Leinster and Ulster driven by Anthony Powys-Lybbe.
At the time, Powys-Lybbe stated that “P3s” were “only really suitable for the long tracks of Spain and Ireland”!
The next owner was John Vessey who achieved a fine second place in the Richard Seaman race behind Maserati 8CM “3011” (which was, for many years, campaigned by Peter).
#5006 was also campaigned by John Crowther and Michael Thackray.
In 1966 on the long Rouen circuit, #5006, in the hands of William Summers, out performed, in straight line speed, the current competing Formula Two cars.
Neil Corner became #5006’s next owner.
In the 1970s ERA exponent Peter Waller managed a good third place with #5006 behind a Mercedes W125 (which was subsequently historic raced by Peter), and a well developed 2 liter ERA.
Waller remarked that #5006 was a large car to manhandle when compared with an ERA, a challenge (particularly given the shorter tracks of today) that Peter will now have to cope with.
Today #5006, after an extensive two year restoration by Auto Restorations of New Zealand will, in Peter’s hands, again try to emulate the unparalleled achievements of #5006, in what is now a 70+ year old Grand Prix car.

This is the "clean" PCB, as seen through the magnifying glass.
The idea is to join the dots... placing the right components in between. Luckily there's always a shema printed on the reverse of the PCB ;)
FISSILE CORE STORAGE –
The fissile cores were stored in small buildings arranged around the large non-nuclear component stores. In total there are 57 of these buildings, which are divided into 48 Type 'A' and 9 Type 'B' stores. The fissile core stores are organised in four uneven groups around the non-nuclear stores. The two southerly groups of stores are arranged symmetrically to the south of the large non-nuclear stores, each group having sixteen small store buildings. The north-eastern group contains eleven stores and the north-west group fourteen. All but the south-east group contained a mixture of Type 'A' and Type 'B' stores.
The store buildings are linked together by pedestrian width walkways, fenced by tubular steel pipes 37in tall with strands of white between the horizontal members. The area was lit by pre-cast concrete lamp-posts, each of which had a red panic button at chest height. The Type 'A' storage buildings 1-48 are small kiosk-like structures. In plan they measure 8ft 4in by 7ft 10in and stand 9ft above ground level. The foundations of the building are constructed of 3ft thick mass concrete. The walls are of cavity wall construction and are formed of solid concrete blocks, while the roof is a flat over-hanging reinforced concrete slab with a drip mould, and is covered with bituminous felt. The design drawing (Drg. No. 3563B/52) shows a variety of irregular roof plans designed to disguise the structures from the air. These were never built, all the roofs being rectangular in plan.
Fittings on the walls indicate that they were all originally protected by copper earthing straps. On the front of many of the stores a stencilled notice records ''Date of last lightning conductor test April - 63''. Internally the walls are finished in unpainted, smooth gritless plaster. The side and rear walls are ventilated by four small controllable ventilators, two at the base of the wall and two at the top. In the floor of each of the Type 'A' stores is a single keyhole shaped cavity. Each hole is 1ft 5in in diameter and 1ft 9in deep. The shaft of the hole measures 10in wide and is 8in long and is shallower than the main hole at 3½in. A scar around the hole suggests it originally contained a vessel with the asphalt brought up around its lip. This is confirmed by the survival of the surrounding lip in similar stores at RAF Faldingworth, Lincolnshire, and by the rare survival of a number of stainless steel vessels at the bomb store at RAF Gaydon, Warwickshire.
The electrical system of each store was contained within small bore metal pipes; circular junction boxes led to other electrical fittings, which have in most cases been removed. In a number of the stores 'Walsall' Type 1174X flameproof switch boxes remained. On their covers is cast ''5 Amp 250 Volt Flameproof switchbox type Walsall 1174BX Group 2 FLP 302 Group 3 Test P60 Isolate supply elsewhere before removing this cover''. A small formica sign confirmed that ''The electrical installation in this building is standard 'A' in accordance with AP 2608A''. All the stores originally had external fuse boxes to the left of their doors.
The doors are wooden and open outwards, their outer faces being protected by a steel sheet. They are secured by a combination lock and internal vertical locking bar operated by an external handle. A metal fitting in the path allowed the door to be secured half ajar. Above the door, and attached to its frame, is a spring-loaded electrical contact, which probably recorded on the control board in building 63 whether or not the door was open or closed. Externally and internally the doors are painted light blue. On the door of building No. 1 is a 1ft diameter radiation symbol in yellow and out-lined in black, below it is a 11½in yellow square with a black star at its centre.
The Type 'B' store buildings 49-57 are slightly larger than the Type 'A' measuring 9ft 7in by 7ft 10n. Otherwise the details of the stores are identical to the smaller stores. The principle difference between the two types of structures is that the Type 'B ' had two storage holes in their floors. Each of these buildings was also equipped with a small wooden counter adjacent to the doors; the counters measure 2ft 6in by 1ft 6in and standing 4ft tall. They have been removed from stores 53 and 55. At some point during the operational life of the station the holes in the floors of all the Type 'B' stores were filled and covered by gritless asphalt. The asphalt surfaces in the stores are continuous, often with a slight depression marking the position of the holes, which implies that the original floor was lifted and new floors laid. The holes in store 52 have been reopened, as indicated by fragments of the asphalt surface thrown back into the holes. This is in contrast to RAF Faldingworth where the holes have been left open.
In total there were enough holes to store 66 fissile cores. One source states that the single hole stores contained plutonium cores, while the double-hole stores were, used for cobalt cores. Currently available documentation does not reveal if one fissile core may be equated with one bomb, or if a bomb contained more than one fissile core. Recent research has shown that Britain probably produced no more than twenty Blue Danube warheads, with this number on the active stockpile between 1957 and 1961. It is therefore likely that no more than a handful of weapons were stored at RAF Barnham at anyone time.
The significance of the filling of the holes in the Type 'B' stores is also unclear. It may coincide with the withdrawal of the first generation nuclear weapon, ''Blue Danube'', and the deployment second generation atomic bomb, ''Red Beard'' (from 1961), or it may be related to the introduction of first British hydrogen bomb, ''Yellow Sun'' (from 1958). Given the number of available nuclear warheads in the late 1950’s and early 1960’s, it is unlikely that the RAF Barnham store was ever full. Part of RAF Barnham's function, along with other bomb stores, was to convince the Soviet Union that Britain had more nuclear weapons at her disposal than was in fact the case.

Entre 1959 y 1962, 329 de estos hermosos coches fueron fabricados. El diseño es de Giovanni Michelotti, el chasis del TR3 y los componentes mecánicos eran suministrados por la Triumph Motor Company desde el Reino Unido y el producto final salía de la fábrica de Alfredo Vignale en Turí, Italia. El coche fué idea del distribuidor de Standard-Triumph en Italia, Salvatore Ruffino, quién pensaba en una producción de unas mil unidades. Las dificultades económicas de Triumph, terminó siendo comprada por British Leyland, y la presentación por parte de la casa inglesa de su modelo TR4, también diseñado por Michelotti con muchos elementos de este modelo, terminaron la corta carrera de uno de los Triumph más hermosos.
