• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

'Jim Clark'

When men were men amd safety was low in priority. Notice the tree trunks at the side of the road, never mond crash barriers or run off areas. Still, I well remember the sad day when Clark was killed.
Wouldn't it be great to see F1 return to having a clutch and gears. That would separate the men from the boys.
 
I had the great good fortune to see Jimmy at the start of his F1 career when he drove a Lotus 21 in the first of the Tasman Cup Series, and the privilege of seeing him win his final Grand Prix in the Lotus 49T.
He was a phenomenal talent, far above the rest of his peers, a man's man and a straight up good bloke.
I remember the day when I was informed we had lost him, almost to the exact time of day, where I was and what I was doing.
To use the old saying, Jimmy was an 'Ornament to the Sport'.
