  • An Excerpt from Chapter 13 Winning Is Not Enough by Sir Jackie Stewart
    An excerpt from Chapter 13 Winning Is Not Enough by Sir Jackie Stewart “Look,” said Mark, aged six. “There’s Daddy’s autograph.” We didn’t know what he was taking about, but we turned to see our young son was pointing at the instantly recognizable blue oval-shaped emblem of the Ford Motor Company. He had so often seen me wearing racing overalls with the Ford insignia, or appearing at Ford events, or featuring in Ford advertisements that he had grown to assume their logo also represented me. In fact, I was first contracted to the company in 1964 and I would remain so until 2004. First as a racing driver, then a public affairs representative, a sales and marketing spokesman, a vehicle dynamic assessor, a concept design consultant and lastly a strategic adviser in training engineers, my forty years with Ford represented the most significant commercial association of my life. It began in October 1964 when I turned up at the British Motor Show at Earls Court, London, as a young racing driver hoping to make some contacts in the motor industry. These were early days, and I had decided to drive south from Scotland through the night because I didn’t think I could afford to stay in a London hotel. Even so, I had three names written on a scrap of paper—Dick Jefferies from Dunlop, Geoff Murdoch from Esso and Walter Hayes from Ford—and I hoped that if I could meet any of them, they might be able to help develop my career and hopefully improve my financial situation.

  • Lotus Cortina.Pages
    ! The Leo Voyazides/Simon Hadfield, Pre-Airflow, Lotus Cortina Mk1 • The ultimate in U2TC, the pace setter and benchmark over the last decade. Built by Bruce Stevens of Plan B Motorsport, with recent work by Wolfe Manufacturing, and raced so successfully with Leo Voyazides and Simon Hadfield, with the pair claiming victory in the U2TC Four Hour Challenge for three years running. • Presented with only around 90 minutes running on the mechanicals since the no expense spared rebuild. Featuring the lightest and best quality components on the market, the Cortina is ballasted with lead to meet the 750kg minimum weight limit. • Accompanied by another set of Minilite style aluminium wheels with Dunlop tyres, a spare gearbox, a spare differential, straight through exhaust pipe, and boxes of running spares containing various brake pads, shoes, electrical parts, bearings and other parts. Also included are the new FIA HTPs which were issued in July 2016, Andy Robinson Race Cars Roll Cage Certificate and V5. • With a variety of grids across Europe in which it can compete, including U2TC, Masters, HSCC and the Goodwood Revival, now is the time to get ready to attack in 2017 and why not do that with the best of the best. The unmistakable lines of the Lotus Cortina, mid corner, hard on the the throttle, the front inside wheel raised in the air and Jim Clark behind the wheel still has to be one of the most evocative images of any motorsport to this day. Immensely successful on both sides of the Atlantic, the Lotus Cortina is credit to and yet another fine example of Colin Chapman’s legendary ingenuity, flare and ability to stay one step ahead of the game.
