My Racing Days

I started my working career as a apprentice motor mechanic and after 4 years I was qualified.  I trained on Jaguar, Rover and Triumph and loved every minute of it.  I also spent a few years working on BMW's and was very impressed by the engineering and quality.

I was  and still am very keen on motor racing and with a friend decied to have a go a oval circuit racing.  I raced a Mini at Kimbolton Raceway a short circuit oval between 1978-79.   I managed two first and two seconds.
