Does the Team think?

[David.H]

I remember Rallying up to International level in the 1960's in shirt & tie (and a Sports Jacket!). At the start of the London Sydney Marathon in 1968 the Ford Competition Manager (Henry Taylor) sent us off to Paddy Hopkirk's stand (even if Paddy was driving a BMC1800!) to get a set of "flameproof" overalls as we were in Sports Jackets and flannels! (We were Army Officers after all...standards, dear boy!) The other five works Cortina Lotus crews had overalls sponsored by the Wool Federation (or some such!). I have a photo of Roger Clark & Jim Porter at the end of the Monte in 1965 where they won their class in a Rover 2000, both in smart suit & Ties! No Crash Helmets nor Roll Cages either!
O tempora, O mores....
