I'm always on the look out for similar looking racers to mine in period

I took this pic from the TV programme 'touring car greats'

Anyone any idea who it is ?

Will have a look at this later but it looks like a Broadspeed to the left, maybe McDougal or even Mike Kearon, I'd guess at 1965 and is it Mallory?

The commentated clip looks like Thruxton to me.

Anyone else spot the Viking Elf at the back of the grid.

Forgotten the driver's name now but yes that Viking Elf surely must have had a cage?? Nobody else did! :lol:

Still can't remember the name of that Viking Hornet racer but the car that instantly springs to mind that looked like the all white one was Ken Costello's. It's a front runner aswell which would also add up.
