Formula 3 500's in Kenya
whilst try to find some info on our ex-Kenya 1948 Cooper Mk2, I have spoken to a number of Drivers who were racing these 500's/formula 3 cars in Kenya in the 1950's-1970's. anyway my list of these drivers/cars is:
Gunter and Rodney Sachs - Martin Norton 2 x Copper JAP mk3 Cooper JAP mk7 Cooper Norton mk5 Chris Bates - Cooper JAP mk2 [1] Cooper Norton mk4(?) later raced formula vee David Beckett - Cooper JAP mk2 [1] won 1961 safari, raced TR's and jag C etc. now races Norton ex TT Bikes Vic Preston - Cooper JAP mk3 [2] Bob Gerrish - Cooper JAP mk3[2] won East African Hill Climb Championship 3 times Peter Sheperd - Kieft Norton Don King - Cooper mk3 Ron Richardson & Monty Banks (shared ownership?) - Cooper mk7 Colin Hay - Cooper JAP mk5 1200cc V-twin. Bill Frithy - Cooper JAP mk? ex safari winer Chris Little - Cooper Jap mk? this list is built up from the memories of people who were there and may have errors and I'm sure plenty of ommisions - anyone care to add to it? the suffix [number] is to show know route of cars changing hands.
