lifeline-fire should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Hi

I worked for John for a few years. he ran my fathers cars in the Old British Saloon Car Championship, VW Golf etc etc. I sarted with John just as he was finishing the last ever spaceframe Stiletto for Nick and Tony Bridge, but I had known him for many years beforwe when we worked out of a wooden shed just of the Stoney Stanton Road in Coventry with Tom Sheppherd. His standards of prepeartion and presentation were second to none and he was a real task master and briliant engineer, I learnt so much from him, resenting it at the time as I was only 16, I soon realised there was only one way of doing something.....and that was Johns way.
When john closed the business he was a scrutineer for the BTCC and then vanished of the motorsport radar to run a hotel on the south coast.
If anyone has any specific questions then please PM me
