Dave Brodie's famous Escort 'Run Baby Run' was an awesome special saloon car! It looked great in it's black paint job . It had a 2 litre BDA motor I believe and Dave was always very quick. He runs his successful tuning business BBR now which is virtually next to the BAR factory in Brackley.
I believe 'Run Baby Run' first appeared at the end of 1970 and Dave ran it until '73 I think. He had loads of wins against the likes of Martin Birrane, Gerry Marshall and Mike Chittenden. Dave's previous Escort was entered by none other than 'Frank Williams Racing Cars'.
A lovely bloke Dave. Years ago I did a painting of Roger Williamson showing his portrait and F3 GRD. ( It is not on my website but I should add it on) It was exhibited at the Race Car show at Donington in '89. When Dave saw it he almost cried and had to turn away to compose himself. Roger was his best mate but was killed in the '73 GP at Zandvoort. Dave bought the painting and still has it now. This past February a tree was planted in Roger's home town of Leicester in his memory. Dave turned up with the painting for good measure.
Nice that someone remembers 'Run Baby Run'.
