I have received notification from Simon Grist that his father John has sadly passed away at the age of 80 following a short illness.
John first raced a Lancia Fulvia in the Classic & Sportscar Novice championship 1987 which resulted in 2 Class wins.
He then moved on to a Fairthorpe EM1 registered 589 DUP in the 1988 Road Sports championship, results included 3 class wins against the current championship winning Fairthorpe in 1989.
John raced until 1993 including FIA events at Brands, Zolder, Zandvoort, Dijon and Montlery.
His funeral will take place on December the 8th at Thorverton in Devon, if you require the full funeral details please contact me through this blog site.
