Spirit in Historic F1
Does anyone else here remember a Spirit in Historic F1 around the mid 90s driven by Mark --------? It ended at Brands with the thing broken in two after hitting the bank on the inside of the exit of Paddock. Does anyone recall the name of the driver and what happend to the "broken Spirit".

Hall & Hall had a Spirit for sale not long ago with cosworth engine. Might be the same one as there was only ever one Spirit F1 with a DFV. Which did only one race before the team went back to Hart turbo engines.

Think the driver was Mark Williams and it was indeed a DFV engined car.

Must be the same car then, as the chassis was presented in a near immaculate condition, I imagine it has benefitted from a full restoration after the crash you described.
