Oulton Park and Kyalami.

This was apparently one of the seven Rootes works rally cars. When its rallying duties ended it became a Modsports circuit racer, as pictured, driven by Malcolm Sears. Sadly it was later crashed and wrecked.

A rather nice highly modified Sunbeam Tiger in the paddock at Oulton Park. Basically a Sunbeam Alpine fitted with a Ford V8. Initially the engine size was 260 cubic inch (4.3 litre), but later models had an engine of 289 cubic inches (4.7 litre). The engine was a tight fit and Sunbeam had to provide inspection holes in the footwells to allow access to the rearmost spark plugs. Only 7,083 cars were built and today they are much sought after. (And am I the only who thinks that "Sunbeam" sounds as though it should be a modern Chinese brand?)

The other big team in BSCC Escort racing was Broadspeed. This is the Escort 1300GT of John Fitzpatrick which retired with throttle slide issues.
