Contact : Neil Molyneux Contact : Chris Lee Email : [email protected] Email : [email protected] Website : www.2300club.org Tel. : 07831-124417 Website : www.lancsautoclub.com John Price THE 2300 Club would like to express their sadness at the passing of rally legend John Price, and extend their sin- cere condolences to John’s family, wife Caroline, children Stephen, Cathi, Kevin and Stephanie. “We were very proud to have known John for many years as a friend and a competitor on the Tour of Mull,” said club chairman Neil Molyneux. “Although he never won the event, and it wasn’t for the want of trying very hard, the joy he brought everyone with his Metro 6R4 was unforgettable.” A leading figure in UK National Rallying for over 40 years, John also contested events in the WRC, ERC, Irish Na- tional, West Euro Rally Cup and Scottish championships. He was a prolific competitor in the Motorsport UK Tarmac Championship, starting 116 events, winning 38 and finishing on the podium 70 times. He won the overall title in 2000 and 2002. John will be remembered for his attacking driving style, and the wide variety of cars he drove- Re- nault 5 Maxi Turbo, Porsche Carrera, Alpine-Renault A110 and the 6R4 to name a few.
