Rich Brown should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Can anyone identify the single seater?

I've been sent some photos by a friend on behalf of the wife of a former racer. She wants to know more about the cars he used to race, sadly he passed away some years ago and I guess she wants to fill in the gaps. He lived in the NW of the USA and he raced in that area in the 1960s.

I think I recognise two of the cars as a TVR Griffith 200 and Lotus 7 but the single seater is a mystery. Can anyone help its identity?

Thanks, Rich

The TVR is Fitz Warren's Mk3 as raced by Pete Brock. Can you tell me the name of the former racer.

Thanks Rob, the guy's name was Warren Sturges apparently. He lived at least the latter part of his life in Oregon, USA. Is the car still around?

Interesting.

For what it's worth there is this from 1964. Lotus 7 related.

Pretty sure the single-seater is a Lotus 27. Formula Junior for 1963.
