T-Man Posted 18May, 2014 Report Share Posted 18May, 2014 Was lucky enough to see Sir Jack at the Phillip Island Classic. Looked old and frail, but still drew a crowd. RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NiX Posted 19May, 2014 Report Share Posted 19May, 2014 Was lucky enough to meet Sir Jack at the first Bahrain GP when I was working for Jag. He came in the kitchen had a chat with me for half an hour or so - got a photo somewhere. First person to win a world title in a car he constructed, got to admire that. Such a kind & gentle man..

Guest Harold Posted 19May, 2014 Report Share Posted 19May, 2014 He was a legend, for memory, didn't he build his own car using a modified Holden 5 liter V8 engine and won three major races with it? RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
