Racing in the Rain: My Years with Brilliant Drivers, Legendary Sports Cars, and a Dedicated Team
|
| |
|
Author: John Horsman
Few can claim that their racing careers spanned the greatest decades in sports-car competition--the 1960s and 1970s--and then extended into the 1980s. Fewer still were consistently successful. John Horsman is one of the fortunate few. The blue-and-orange Gulf-sponsored Ford GT40s, Mirages, and Porsche 917s prepared by Horsman and his team are among the most famous race cars ever produced. The all-star driver lineup that competed in his cars includes Derek Bell, Mike Hailwood, David Hobbs, Jacky Ickx, Brian Redman, Pedro Rodriguez, Vern Schuppan, and Jo Siffert. The team excelled everywhere, winning Le Mans three times and the World Championship three times, and was particularly adept in wet-weather conditions where competitors struggled to match their pace. Some records achieved by Horsman’s team still stand forty years later.
