Lamplough back to single-seaters in Historic F3
Long-time historic racer Mike Lamplough has joined the Historic Formula 3 grid with the ex-steven Smith Chevron B15.
The Chevron, which was originally a Jolly Club car raced in Italy in the late 1960s, had not run for a couple of years.
Lamplough had his first outing in the car at the Historic Sports Car Club’s Snetterton meeting last weekend, after a few laps of testing. “This is my first single-seater race since 1994 when I ran a
Van Diemen RF82 in Classic Formula Ford 2000,” said Lamplough, who more recently has been racing an MG Magnette and a Gilbern. “I thought it was time to do something a bit different and this is a voyage into the unknown.”
Lamplough took a best result of fifth in the opening race.
