Donovan and Richings shared the ACCO car in 86. To be honest I do not remember one of them being a director. Richings had a big accident in the car at Silverstone ( In the days of catch fencing) and did not drive it again, so Donovan completed the rest of the season.
James Shead drove a similar car that year, we also ran an Ecosse C2 car for his father Don the following year or was it 88, that car was stunning.
We had some great fun running a variety of cars from MG Metro turbos for Vic Covey in both the domestic and some euro rounds, Group A Rover, Golfs, Prod Saloon cars, F3 and the C2.
John also built his own Artic unit from an old Argos unit. Again the attention to detail was just fantastic, we did it over a winter in the freezing cold, outside at the back of the unit. He sold that to BRM for the Le Mans project.
