I tripped over this interesting site http://www.petestowe...t/p_bristol.htm that has some very good historical coverage of motor racing in the Bristol area of the UK picked up some nice bits of Jaguar info.
Well worth a look at
I am chasing any info or pics of jaguars racing around the world pre 1965

Think you might have seen this one of Ken Livingstone driving an XK 140 in a rally in Northern Rhodesia Terry, but just in case here is another link.

... and the person who first told me about TNF, some eleven years ago, so I have a lot to thank him for.

Have you seen the YSCC Harewood hillclimb site with the shot of Brian Waddilove's E type, BRW26 at an early event there, and Autosport has a good shot of BRW at Rufforth in period?.

Thanks for those kind words Terry (and Alan & Tim).

Presumably you've seen the feature on the history of Jaguars racing at Castle Combe in the Jan & Feb issues of Jaguar Enthusiast, Terry?

The site is run by BARC (Yorkshire Centre) who are the 'owners' of the harewoodhill.com site. This includes all the modern stuff plus a history section which is growing steadily.
