Rent-A-Ride

July 7, 2014

Fancy a trip in a Lister Storm or a DB7? You could ride in the Merlin-engined Rolls, tell John Surtees just how to tackle Castle Combe circuit, or navigate Russell Brookes in an ex-works Cosworth if you visit the Wiltshire track on November 2, when the Stroke Association holds its fund-raising track day. Organised by our new colleagues at Classic & Sportscar, rides are for sale from 11-ish; no fixed prices, just pay what you can. G C

Bravely ignoring his degree in industrial design after discovering night rallies in a Renault 8, GC joined Motor Sport by accident, in the Teesdale days around 1982 when Jenks and WB were office regulars and Mr Tee ruled with a rod of cardboard. He took part in some of the early historic rallies, winning one of the Pirelli Marathons, and regularly runs his Mk2 Jaguar in road events.
