    ! The Ex-Works, Chequered Flag, Mike Parkes, John Davy Trophy Winning 1961 Gemini Mk3A Formula Junior Chassis Number: FJ Mk3/2/61 • Campaigned by the works Ferrari driver for Le Mans, Mike Parkes, taking the John Davy Trophy for Formula Juniors. • One of two works Geminis run by the Chequered Flag in Formula Junior during 1961. • With a full and continuous life on the race circuit, MK3/2/61 has claimed many a title over the years including winning the UK Historic Formula Junior Championship outright as well as winning the Chichester Cup at the Goodwood Revival. A fantastic opportunity to join the ever thriving Historic Formula Junior grid with a significant works entry. • Accompanied by 2015 HTPs and a spares package which includes another gearbox, set of gears, bodywork sections, wheel, fitted tonneau and assorted running spares. Formula Junior is currently one of the most competitive, active and well attended areas of historic motorsport worldwide, and was originally the brainchild of well known Italian racer Count ‘Johnny’ Lurani. From 1958 to 1963 Formula Junior replaced the motorcycle engined 500cc F3 cars as the stepping stone into Formula 1. Designed as a class for essentially mini Grand Prix chassis running 1,000cc or 1,100cc production engines and gearbox; in its relatively short life time Formula Junior spanned a period that saw some of the most significant changes in motorsport design to this day and as such very quickly went from front to rear engine designs. Formula Junior was a truly international series with 100s of cars regularly competing across the globe.

  • Revolution Magazine Autumn 2005
    Welcome to Revolution When we launched Revolution magazine earlier this year we were pleasantly surprised by the positive feedback that we received from readers, in the form of calls, letters and emails. You 2 seemed to like the mix of information and news and it’s given us something to live up to with this, our second issue. As the largest independent distributor of turbochargers in the world, we aim to support the factors and vehicle repairers who depend on us to supply replacement turbos quickly and efficiently, and to provide advice on all aspects of turbocharging. Some of the facts and figures that we quote in this issue illustrate just how many turbocharged vehicles there are on the road today. Sooner or later, they’re all going to need some turbo attention! Inside Revolution 2 In this issue, you’ll find an article outlining the basic principle of turbocharging. It is surprisingly simple in its basic form, but technology is moving very fast, as you will see in our profile of BorgWarner Turbo Systems. We also look at the success of the Garrett®-boosted Audi R8 in June’s Le Mans 24 hour race and, by way of contrast, we see how turbocharged diesel power is becoming popular in the marina (that’s the harbour, not the seventies’ Morris car!) Win a Silverstone Track Day BTN offers you the opportunity to spend a day driving at Silverstone! Enter our simple competition and you and a friend or colleague could be off to for an adrenalin-filled day behind the wheel, in everything from a Lotus Elise on the track to a 4x4 on the specially constructed off-road course.

Helton will share his important insights with AARWBA members and guests in Indy one day after the annual NASCAR NEXTEL Cup awards cer- emony in New York City. Helton has been a key 842-7005 leader in growing NASCAR into America’s No. 1 motorsports series and one of the country’s most popular mainstream sports attractions. Before becoming NASCAR president in late 2000, Helton had management positions at the Atlanta and Talladega tracks, and later was NASCAR’s vice president for competition and then senior VP and chief operating officer. “I’m happy to accept AARWBA’s invitation to speak at the All-America Team dinner,” said Helton. “AARWBA members have played an important role in the growth of NASCAR and motorsports in general. I look forward to this opportunity, and to join AARWBA in recognizing the champion drivers of 2005, and congratulating AARWBA on a successful 50th anniversary.” AARWBA members voted NASCAR’s founding France Family as Newsmaker of the Half-Cen- tury, the headline event of the 50th Anniversary Celebration.
