Posted 04 September - Originally posted by Mark Beckman I got this for the "cosworth Finacing" thread but its got lots of interesting notes so I put it in this seperate thread. Which compnay produces engines for the high performance Focus programme? Posted 05 September - Posted 13 November - I know that Australia ran F2's with F's around this era, but it looks funny when you read it as it reads. Originally posted by cosworth bdg You had better update your facts, Keith Duckworth has now passed away R. Posted 21 March - Posted 22 March - Colin Chapman knew Lotus had a serious problem with the introduction of the new 3-litre limit in following the withdrawal of his engine supplier Coventry Climax, but he also realised that with the introduction of the 3-litre formula all the teams had to start again. Chapman decided with the shortage of potential engine suppliers here was a golden opportunity to encourage a new supplier to enter the arena and at the same time gain an advantage over the opposition Chapman asked Duckworth if he thought he could build a Grand Prix engine and if so what would be the cost. As an interesting postscript when Walter Hayes suggested to Chapman that if Lotus had the exclusive use of the Ford DFV such was its potential it could kill GP racing, Chapman immediately agreed that it should be made available to anyone who wanted one. On lap 11 Hill retired with cam gear failure, but Clark gradually picking up speed and passing his rivals took the lead and carried on to win the race. The Lotus 49 and the Cosworth Ford DFV had won on their debut appearance, however a stripdown of the DFV after the race showed imminent failure of the timing gear, fortunate indeed. I think this was a better engine than the BDG but the cost to produce them was much higher. The low cost availability for every chosen team and its fantastic performance over the years saved F1. But, saved Formula One from what? Was Formula One in this crisis in First Principles: The Official Biography of Keith Duckworth Did the sport have an engine supply problem at that point? It 'saved' Formula One from what was an ill considered formula change. Originally posted by angst But, saved Formula One from what? As David points out, there was no issue in Except that Coventry Climax had put everyone on notice that they weren't going to continue as they had. No new developments, no engine for a new formula. It was only a matter of time before you could expect them to say 'nothing, not a thing, any more'. So to move along to the 'saved F1' issue First, it raised the standard. F1 is supposed to be at the vanguard of development in engines and the Cosworth DFV showed it remained so. Then it spurred development from competing engines Then, after a couple of years of stability, it allowed chassis makers to concentrate on their chassis work. This at a time when increasing funds were coming into F1 meant that the DFV was a major component in accelerated race car development and ever increasing race speeds. Whether that was a bit of salvation or led the F1 game down the wrong path is for each to determine for himself It seems that Colin Chapman - acting on behalf of the American interests in the FIA - might have been one of the most vociferous of the lobbyists in favour of it. Posted 23 March - Does anyone really believe this nonsense? Even Tom Binford and Bill France would stop their feuding long enough to First Principles: The Official Biography of Keith Duckworth this bit of insanity. Posted 20 April - In the Early Lotus sales outlets in Australia thread there is a post about Lotus Seven and a twin cam engine being supplied to Geoghegan in the mid sixties. Was there a particular class in Australia at the time where a cc twin cam would have been particularly appropriate, not necessarily in a Lotus Seven? I wondered whether the engine was supplied with the car not necessarily fitted as a tax efficient method of getting the motor out to the customer who then fitted it in an appropriate car Originally posted by Charles Helps In the Early Lotus sales outlets in Australia thread there is a post about Lotus Seven and a twin cam engine being supplied to Geoghegan in the mid sixties. Carb numbers are also given. If this is correct why does it apparently not seem to have reached the importer? Posted 21 April - At some point, probably when the formula changed from cc to cc, there was a 2-valves per cylinder limitation added. To refresh Ray's memory, Australian Formula 1. These were replaced by a cc Australian Formula 2 for and ; and then a 2-valve cc AF2 for That lasted to the end of and then the single-cam AF2 was brought in. Cosworth, then Cosworth, then Cosworth. Then VWs. Posted 24 April - Posted 30 April - I can't find it again. I'm presuming that somebody knows the site or the source or that Cosworth historians have these records. I'm thinking about the "return to power" under the three litre rules. Once Lotus weren't the only customer, how First Principles: The Official Biography of Keith Duckworth it work with other teams? Who received the best engines? After Cosworth was swamped with DFV business, what were their relationships with independent rebuilders? Posted 20 September - Posted 18 February First Principles: The Official Biography of Keith Duckworth Besides the excellent Cosworth book by Graham Robson, are there any other "must have" Cosworth reference books out there?? It helped enormously that I was and still am, I'm happy to admit well-placed with Cosworth, and with Ford's pictorial archive. I must admit, I've long been a fan of the FVA, to me it's a quintessential racing engine. It's a shame that there was only ever one of them fitted to a F2 open wheeler of my favourite Antipodean marque, Elfin Racing Cars! Although there are enough of them in Brabhams down here to keep me happy!!! Posted 19 February - As Graham told us in the book thread, he's currently updating and improving his orignal Cosworth book ready for release in April to coincide with the DFV's fiftieth anniversary. Such information could be useful to non-experts and would help identify components and possibly establish the correct specifications for different cars. Personally First Principles: The Official Biography of Keith Duckworth would find such informaton rather more useful and interesting than another list of race results but I'm no doubt in a minority. For Peter Morley No, sorry, it simply isn't that sort of book, as you surely know if you have read any of the earlier editions. As before, there will be as much about people First Principles: The Official Biography of Keith Duckworth commercial events as there is about bores and strokes. And for another First Principles: The Official Biography of Keith Duckworth simply isn't space commercially viable, that is to go into all such detail. And finally - and I'm trying to be realistic about this - the DFV became something of a backwater in Cosworth's never-ending story in the mids that's 30 years ago Perhaps it ought to be you who tackles it - and makes a book, or at least a pamphlet, about it? Funnily enough the DFV is still evolving, the introduction of a rev-limit in historic racing led to a new specification developing! I did wonder about adding such a thing to the list of projects but it's much easier to write about something you know about, meanwhile I will have a look for the information you mention Posted 06 March - Posted 02 September - Posted 03 September - The second is "Further Thoughts on Formula 2" in the May issue. I can email you scans of these articles if you will let me know your your email address. Posted 12 October - The latter turned out to be a misnomer My recollection is that the idea of the new formula with 3 litres unblown and 1. Heavy-duty lobbying wasn't involved. After its adoption sages wrote extensively about the problem that designers would have in coping with the vast increase in power expected.

  • Keith Duckworth Obituary 4
    Keith Duckworth: Obituary Cosworth is sorry to record that its founder, Keith Duckworth, died on Monday, 19 December 2005. He was 72 years old. Along with his life-long colleague and friend, Mike Costin, he had set up Cosworth Engineering in 1958, and guided it to world –wide fame in the field of high-performance automotive engineering. It was Keith who personally designed the legendary Cosworth DFV V8 Formula One engine which, with 155 GP victories, is the most successful engine ever to be used in the sport. David Keith Duckworth was born in Blackburn, Lancashire, on 10 August 1933, into a family with roots in the cotton weaving industry. Having spent eight years at Giggleswick School, he then studied engineering at London’s Imperial College where, as he always cheerfully admitted : ‘I just scraped through with a pass. No way was I going to get honours….’ After completing his studies in 1957, and already known as a deep and analytical thinker, he accepted a development post at Lotus to work on their new gearbox, where he met Mike Costin, and forged a life-long friendship with the man who was to become his partner. After only one year, and determined to work for himself, he moved out of Lotus. Along with Costin, they then set up Cosworth Engineering, which originally had an authorised capital of just £100. Working alone at first (Costin’s contract at Lotus could not be broken until 1962), and using borrowed premises in Kensington, he set out on a career defined by a famous assumption that: ‘It must be possible to make an interesting living, messing about with racing cars and engines ….’ After moving to the Railway Tavern, Friern Barnet, in 1959, and taking on his first staff, Keith developed Cosworth’s first Ford-based Formula Junior engine, which soon set new high standards, and won hundreds of races.

    ! The Ex-Alan Stacey, Works 1959 Lotus 15 Chassis No. 621-3 Engine No. 1097 • Driven with notable success for Team Lotus by Alan Stacey during the 1959 season. • According to a leading historian to have potentially been taken to Le Mans in 1959 as a spare car or even a second entry. • Sold to New Zealand in 1959 where it continued a well documented and successful racing career on into the 1970’s. • Driven to an impressive 7th in the 1960 New Zealand Grand Prix by Jim Palmer, in the company of Moss, Mclaren and Brabham, all in 2.5-litre Cooper Grand Prix cars. • Re-imported into the UK by respected historic racer and collector Spencer Flack. • Raced with great success by its current owner since 2008, with numerous wins, overall class victory in the Stirling Moss Trophy 2009, 2010 and 2011, 2nd in the Madgwick Cup and a 5th in the Sussex Trophy at the Goodwood Revival and an impressive 2nd overall in the hard fought Plateaux 3 at Peter Auto’s Le Mans Classic. • Meticulously prepared by one of the most respected names in historic racing with no expense spared, having seen little or no miles since its last refresh. • This is an incredibly rare opportunity to acquire such an original and well regarded Ex-Works Lotus and an absolute proven front running ‘50s Sports Car. To many, the 1950s saw sportscar racing at its most pure, establishing and creating some of the most influential car manufacturers for the decades to follow. By the mid to late 1950’s the tides of sports car design were starting to turn and pave the way for things to come.

I did not count exactly how many were there, but I am guessing not far off of 60. April means our annual trip to Dundry for our Trial – and fortunately it was not as wet this year. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves – my personal thanks to everyone involved in running the event. Mal and Donny did an amazing job setting everything up, and Tim Murray did his usual excellent job of sorting out the results. At the end of the event we were also lucky to have a quick visit to Duncan’s workshop – hopefully we did not interrupt his engine building too much. Duncan as always makes us very welcome – Thank you again. As I write this, our next event is the Llandow sprint on Saturday, then we have a number of events that allow you to get out and use your car, or perhaps just come along and enjoy looking at other peoples. I am hoping for some sunshine for these events.
