I'm sure that different people will have different opinions as to whether regularly competing in the St Mary's Trophy race is "actually rac(ing) anything".
One suspects that it's a lot more that what James Allen does.


you obviously didn't see the race a couple of years ago where Gerry Marshall was throwing an Alvis 'Grey Lady' around and battling for the lead - these guys don't hang around
I'm with you, senor.
In this past year's race (if we're allowed to count it as a 'race'), Jardine competed against, amongst others, Rahal, Oliver, Tambay, Hales, T. Dron, B. Williams, J. Fitzpatrick, Karthikeyan, Liuzzi, Needell and Alan Jones, in addition to the group that he outqualified, which included D. Bell, Pirro, Munari, Moss, Arnoux, and J. Rhodes.
Jardine finished 7th.

As long as it doesnt get as bad as the commentary/presentation on the WRC on ITV, if that is actually possible.

Tony Jardine is also co-driver with "Team 44", an Aston Martin V8 race car who competes with the AMOC. Does a good job, considering he only turns up on the morning to race.

I was saddened to see they had dropped him as he is a genuine enthusiast but, to be honest, I didn't miss him all that much in yesterday's coverage.

Its a small world: I bought my Aston from Bob. Apparently '44 is going to be very quick this year!

Any votes for Tiff?, he always sounds enthusiastic (the Murray factor), probably a better broadcaster than race driver (No James Allen stream of conscience histrionics), but still has petrol in his veins...

Tiff, ive spoke to him a few time through racing and he is so stuck up,arrogant and basicly loves himself,

I cant stand him, you see him on tv sliding these cars about but watching him a race car and hes nothing special

He always does quite well at Goodwood - although I must admit he has yet to win.

My favourite Tiff moment was when he guested in a round of the TVR Tuscan Chaallenge - and won. On his slowing down lap he undid his harness, and then got disqualified.
