JCL will become famous soon enoughJCL will become famous soon enough
still off topic....

I know Mika Hakkinen drove it a few years later. I looked it up,and Hans Herrmann also drove it at Goodwood. I think that is it though, they look to world class drivers and don't let the PR hacks drive them.

I've been back to Goodwood twice since returning to Canada from a few years in the UK, and it was well worth it both times. Walking through the pits and seeing Junior Johnson, then John Surtees, then the Aston Martin DBR1, then a Tullius Jag...the list goes on. It is a great item to have on your bucket list. Take a camera.

Point taken - ignorant me. Knowing that, though, I still (albeit potentially ignorantly) would have guessed Sir Stirling because of the period correct sky blue overalls and white crash helmet. I say ignorantly because who's to say Mikka and Hans (who, as you know, is an old time heavy-weight like Moss) wouldn't have worn the same for the event? Haha

Regardless, super cool.

And now back to the original point of this thread
