Loving the new site!
Is that video made from clips from you racing days? Looks really exciting, gives a real sense of perspective to the book.
Hi Barry, pleased you like the new site and very pleased you like my books!
The video is a random collection of clips of world sports car races, primarily from the mid 80s. I found the clip on YouTube, put together by someone far more talented than me, but thought it very evocative of my days back then.
You’ll find pictures of most of my old cars on the “Racing Career” page. I was racing/running my team between 84 to 87 in the WSCC, and there is a brief flash of one of my cars part way through the video!
A friend is putting together another video of some of my races/cars and it’ll be on the site very soon.
Me again…I also remember the Willhire….and crawling out with parts to back of the circuit to fix Doug Wood’s car in the middle of the night…the other driver with you was a certain Mark Reece?
Good days, lots of fun. It may have been Mark Reece… memory fades! Have you read Chequered Justice yet http://johnbartlett.co.uk/chequered-justice/ ? There’s serious talk of it being turned into a “made for TV” film!
Hi I’ve just saw somewhere you wrote about your experience in the group c era .
I don’t wanna order the wrong book so could you tell me wich one I should buy.
I want to buy the right book offcourse
Hi
Both books cover my racing history from beginning to end… Dark Horse tells the story from childhood and to getting into racing and making it into the WSCC and Group C. Chequered Justice tells the story after it all went wrong with flashbacks into the racing world.
Both books are available in paperback or eBook and the audio book of Chequered Justice (read by Leslie Phillips) is currently being produced…. Also strong possibility of the latter being made into a film for TV!
Regards
John
