It was whilst I was browsing though some back issues of MX-5 Owners Club magazine 'Soft top, Hardtop',before throwing them out, that I came across an interesting article in February-08's issue. Racing memories from a golden age.
It concerns club member Chris Neville-Parry, how he came to be Firestone's World Competitions Manager and how he became close friends with Jim Clark, whilst working with him to win at Indianapolis. I was unable to find an on-line article, but most of it was lifted from a BRDC bulletin from a few years ago, and it is on line. Click here for a read. If you scroll down to page 8, you'll find the article.
I found it quite interesting.
