I found some old Autosport reports and pictures of him recently from way back when he raced Clubmans; he was very chuffed, memories came flooding back.

Sorry to hear about his passing, I brought his Lola T212 to New Zealand many years ago.

I got to know Jeremy reasonably well in the 90’s. In those days I was working closely with the official timekeepers (MST) and every UK F3 race that we covered Jeremy used to come up to the timekeepers box—he was always very welcomed and very much respected by all. A very pleasant and knowledgeable individual—he truly believed in F3 as the major rung to F1.
My condolences to his family and friends
