I cant remember many wins at national level for a Pacer Formula Ford, and the Final winner was the evergreen Rick Morris in the works Royale , a very useful driver who should have gone on to better things. Rick was always at the front end mainly in Royales .

2) Geoff Creber - Coltman Creber
I always thought that Geoff Creber was sponsored by his Dad's Pub (Even if it wasn't written on the side of the car). Was the Nomad he raced built by the late Phill Lloyd?
Coltman Creber straightened and repaired my F750 chassis. The braizing cracked!!

I don't remember him being sponsored but he had a wholesale cut flower business, so he may have promoted that.
He got to work one day and found the whole place had burnt down

If you had asked me which Silverstone regular was sponsored by his own florist business, I'd have probably said Mike Bennion.6] Mike Bulmer
I don't remember him being sponsored but he had a wholesale cut flower business, so he may have promoted that.
He got to work one day and found the whole place had burnt down
He had white / blonde hair didn't he?
Either way, if I'm right or wrong, at least the MB bit is right.
I know somebody will say Mike Bennion raced a Morris Minor and they would probably be right.
The more I think about it, I'm starting to believe it was Mike Bulmer the blonde FF pilot,
but I've got this far, so I'm going to hit the return key anyway.

This answer is along the right lines but not the entrant listed or maybe Harris Foods has another brand name ?? or is part of a group ? the car was a Royale RP26 if that helps.
My estimate of the F5000 drivers is 5 two of which are in Normans Photos .

Yes, I'm sure you are right. I'm wrong with my timing. That was probably later or earlier. I remember the Humbrol car now, thanks.4) Harris Foods (Bacon) - He worked for them.
