I'm still trying to locate a photo of Geoff Williamson's Lotus 11, registration LBW 800 for http://www.mikeparkes.info . Mike raced it at Crystal Palace on 10 June 1957 and Snetterton 12 October 1957. Failing that, any photo of a black Lotus 11 would be illustrative of the type. If anyone can help perhaps we can make arrangements so I can get a copy. Thanks, Johnnie Parkes

Some Lotus Elevens had a headrest, some didn't. Do you know whether this particular Eleven had one?

Was it the same car MJP raced in 1958?

Lovely tribute John, I looked up the car at Racing Sports Cars and the entry at Snetterton has yet to be listed, tried Motor Graphs no joy there either, I'd recommend getting in touch with Ted Walker of Feret Fotographics, with some 7 million images available he might have something for you if not the car, a close approximation.

One observation from an old duffer, the slide show was a bit too fast for me too read all the text :blush:

Peter Sachs has the Klementaski Collection. Here is the link:

Click on "Downloads" and then on "Venue List." Apparently there are 26 b & w photos from the June race at Crystal Palace. Might be worth a try.
