Vixen F4
Does anyone have time sheets of vixen racing at an international event in the 1960's? I'm currently re-building an early imp-engined vixen and would be interested also in any period photos of these cars. Infact any info on them would be great!
Thank you, Myles |

Hi Myles, by coincidence I'm also restoring an F4 car although mine is a JW4. I have a rebuild thread for mine here
http://forum.wscc.co.uk/forum/index....ead/?p=1088211 As part of my own research I've come across several mentions of the other F4 manufacturers including Vixen. Although I don't have any details for international meetings Vixens were raced in the UK and i have them listed for a couple of the F4 races at Brands Hatch, although it would appear they were raced much less frequently than either the Walker's and Tecno's. 23rd June 1968 - Brands Hatch Pat Longhurst Vixen 650 Scott Williams Vixen 875 - Entered by Vixen Racing Cars Bernard Unett Vixen 875 - Entered by Vixen Racing Cars 16th July 1967 - Brands Hatch Nick Brittan Vixen 650 - Entered by Vixen Racing Cars Antony Bottoms Vixen 650 - Entered by Vixen Racing Cars I also have the following website links saved to various photos and details of Vixen cars, which you may find helpful if you haven't found them already. http://www.turrinowheels.com/news/vixen/ http://anarchadia.blogspot.co.uk/201...formula-4.html http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/20930/lot/425/ http://www.imps4ever.info/specials/vixen.html http://www.racecarsdirect.com/listin...4_1969_f4.html There's also a bit of F4 info on this tentenths thread http://tentenths.com/forum/showthread.php?t=51289 Good luck with your rebuild, Mark |
