Tom is still around these days running a very quick BMW in Britcar for David Leslie as well as a few historics. We ran David at Maguires in the Celnett Superprix at Brands Hatch, he shared James Sheads Ralt RT30 and went very well in it. John ran F3 cars for two years in 86 and 87 for James Shead, Mike Donovan, Pete Richings and John Hotchkis..who is now a partner in Red Line Oil Europe with me.

Great stuff!
Blimey yes I'd forgotten about the F3 efforts! How versatile was John's operation??!!
One of the F3 cars was backed by ACCO Controls or something, one of the Directors, either Donovan or Richings drove it didn't they?
