This event is to prepare future Mille Miglia (http://1000miglia.it/?lang=en) entrants for the big event in Italy. My role was course and road book designer along with timing and scoring. Jackie and several of our friends were on hand braving the miserable weather to handle the timing duties. The event started at the Westfields Marriot Center near Dulles airport and covered over 150 miles along some of the most scenic areas in Virginia, Finalizing the results with good friend, and 13 time Maryland and Washington D.C. North American Rally champion, Mark Williams before finally crossing the finish line on Italian-soil at Villa Firenze, the official residence of the Italian Ambassador to the United States. There were some really great cars and all had a wonderful time. My personal favorite was a beautiful 1954 Carozzeria Touring Alfa Romeo 1900 Super Sprint. 1954 Carozzeria Touring Alfa Romeo 1900 Super Jackie handling the scoring duties Sprint.

This month in Rootes Review This month’s issue features the first in a new series about Rare Rootes and their special owners in our club. Bill Bulpitt organized a fantastic gathering of Tigers at this year’s Hilton Head Concours and has a report. Jim Lindner has an update on the Concours judging effort that we’ve been working on with the west coast clubs. Our member spotlight this month is the new Canadian Regional Rep, Gary Corbett. Finally, I’d like to welcome 29 new members to our club! See if somebody lives near you and say hello! Happy Holidays. See you in the New Year! 3 ► Continued from Page 1 Sunbeams at Hilton Head Bill Bulpitt/ Deep South TEAE Rep In 2014 we tried to get significantly historical Tiger racecars at Amelia Island and almost succeeded but things fell apart at the eleventh hour. In 2014 some 40 Tigers were assembled at Laguna Seca, CA for some great photographs at the Monterey Historics, but that was not a judged show. My friend David Kirkman is a longtime judge at the Hilton Head Concours, now in its eighteenth year, and he assured me we could “Get Tigers on the Field at Hilton Head” so I started working on that goal in Tigers in Sunday Concours at Hilton Head December 2017.

  • Shelby Prototype Sunbeam Tiger
    Shelby Prototype Sunbeam Tiger Shelby Prototype Sunbeam Tiger, at the National Auto Museum, 2012. This document is to provide an overview of the Shelby American built, “Prototype” Sunbeam Tiger. Within the document, for clarity and accuracy, this car may be simply referred to as the “Shelby Prototype Tiger.” Though there is a good amount of detail within this piece, it is only a brief synopsis of what has been collected by the past owners of this vehicle. Past owners, period and marque experts have assisted in an effort to provide the most accurate informational document. There is additional documentation and memorabilia that goes with this vehicle, but not all of it will fit into a single, somewhat concise document. Original Idea and Construction at Shelby American The early 1960s had shown that the Sunbeam Alpines had been enjoying reasonable success in the US, both as a competent production sports car, but also in competition against various other small bore adversaries in SCCA road racing. Rootes Group (Sunbeam’s parent company) West Coast Sales Manager received a bit of feedback from Jack Brabham, after a race and win in a Sunbeam Alpine, to suggest a more powerful engine in the Alpine chassis. Garrad garnered sufficient interest from a few executives at Rootes Group (though not Lord Rootes himself), and approached Shelby about building a prototype. Originally constructed in the Shelby American shop on Princeton Drive in Venice, in early 1963, this car became the model example that more than 7,000 production Sunbeam Tigers followed. The Princeton Drive location is where the Shelby Cobras, the Shelby Racing Cobras and first 20-odd GT350’s were built, before Shelby moved to the larger warehouse at Los Angeles Intl.

  • The Oily Rag the Newsletter of the Vintage Sports Car Club of Calgary
    Fall 2020 the Oily Rag The Newsletter of the Vintage Sports Car Club of Calgary 1 Editor’s Comments I must apologize for the lateness of this issue. As I have mentioned in the last issue, my Jaguar has been out of service as it receives repairs and the replacement of the entire exhaust system due to the damage caused when I ran over a starter or al- ternator that had fallen off the truck ahead of me. I therefore I haven't been able to participate in the club drives which have taken place over the summer. As the Oily Rag is the club’s newsletter, I have put off issuing this issue as I have not received any re- ports as to how these events have transpired and therefore one of the main rea- sons of the newsletter existence was missing. I must admit to calling for more participation should have occurred several weeks ago and I was remiss in do- ing so. Recently I put out a plea to the Club’s Executive to please submit some photos and possibly a short article to describe the latest Club outing which was a re- peat of our annual Fall’s Colour tour. I was very pleased to receive several photos from Keith Wilford, Sterling Rempel and Chris Gorrie who not only sent in several photos but also authored an article that is enclosed in this issue! Hopefully the wonderful fall weather that has been the norm in September will continue through October which will allow me to reclaim my Jaguar and enjoy driving this amazing car until at least Halloween! It is my fervent wish that you and your family and co-workers are all doing well.

Just over seven thousand Sunbeam Tigers were built in total between 1964 and 1967, but three special lightweight racing cars were built in 1964 aimed to compete in the GT category of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. These three cars were highly modied versions of the production cars and tted with attractive lightweight, fastback coupe bodies built by Lister. The car oered here, 7734 KV, was the rst of the three competition cars and was used in the 1964 Le Mans tests. Post Le Mans, Ian Hall, the deputy head of the Rootes Competition department took possession of the car for his personal use and competed in a number of sprint races. 7734 KV was released to the private market in February 1965. The car was sold to John Eccles and John’s son, Roger competed in the GT class at the GRSCC Mallory Park sprint in April 1965. The car went on to compete at both Snetterton and Brands Hatch during ’65 – the Brands race being a signicant one, being the only race that all three of the Le Mans Tigers competed in. From 1966 to 1972, the car had a number of owners, all of which used it for competition use before in 1973, Dick Barker from San Diego in California purchased 7734 KV, at which point the car was exported to the USA.

Dear SCCA Media Partners, Welcome to what is truly a new era of the Sports Car Club of America, as the SCCA National Champi- onship Runoffs heads west for the first time in 46 years to Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. This event, made possible with the help of our friends and partners at Mazda and the Sports Car Rac- ing Association of the Monterey Peninsula (SCRAMP), was met with questions at its announcement that have been answered in a big way, with more than 530 drivers on the entry list and a rejunvenaton of the west coast program all season long. While we haven’t been west of the Rockies since River- side International Raceway in 1968, it’s hard to believe it will be that long before we return again. The question on everyone’s mind, even more than usual, is who is going to win? Are there hidden gems on the west coast who may be making their first Runoffs appearance that will make a name for themselves on the national stage, or will the traditional contenders learn a new track quickly enough to hold their titles? My guess is that we’ll see some of each.

  • Sept. 1, 1963, Jim Adams Takes the Victory in F-Production at Santa Barbara, in His MGA That Doane Spencer Helped to Prepare
    p68_FlawlessFast_124CX:vms_ 7/11/12 9:16 AM Page 68 Sept. 1, 1963, Jim Adams takes the victory in F-Production at Santa Barbara, in his MGA that Doane Spencer helped to prepare. L to R: Marilyn Fox, Jim Adams in MGA and Del Owens. vintagemotorsport.com p68_FlawlessFast_124CX:vms_ 7/11/12 9:16 AM Page 69 any racing enthusiasts M have probably heard of Jim Adams or Doane Spencer. Some may think of Jim Adams as the driver of a very successful Sunbeam Tiger or perhaps one of many IMSA GTP cars, and Doane Spencer as the builder of one of the most iconic ’32 Ford roadsters in hot rod history. What many don’t know, is how Adams and Spencer were stitched together for more than 20 years of racing—Adams manning the wheel of some of the most ingenious and well-turned out Doane Spencer-built race cars of the time. Though both were connected early in their efforts to go road racing, getting to that point was quite different for each. Doane Spencer was born in 1923, and brought up in Southern California. He graduated from North Hollywood High in 1941, despite the fact that he was more enamored with hot rods than school. After high school, Spencer joined the Navy, and his 5’10” 128lb. stature landed him the role of tail-gunner over the South Pacific in World War II. Working on airplanes while in the Navy certainly helped, but the reality was that Spencer was a self-taught mechanical genius and metal master.
