Special Saloon Car race at Brands Hatch for 'Driving Ambition' in 1984. Peter Baldwin was the 'real' driver of his own race Mini. Other drivers include Ginger Marshall and David Enderby.

The final race here from the tv series that was in 8 parts produced by the BBC......with Allan Hearshner boo! hiss! :lol:

The cars from left to right are Patrick Watts' Bloom Signs 1275GT, John Barnard's Mini 7 and Hugh Ward's "Tar Baby" Miglia. The surplus driver sitting on the bonnet of the 7 was track testing the three cars for "Triple C" at the end of the 1980 season - Richard Longman.
