Tordoff Senior goes racing

John Tordoff, father of former British Touring Car Championship racer Sam, says he is enjoying racing in historics.

Now in a Lotus Elan from the Jordan Racing Team, Tordoff sometimes shares the Elan with Sam, but ran solo at the Classic at Silverstone in the 50-minute race. Son of former rally driver Jack, the founder of the JCT 600 garage network, John only started racing in 2019 and missed 2020 due to Covid restrictions.

Tordoff joked: “I’m doing more racing these days, and Sam’s spending more time in the office.” Their next target is the Spa Six-Hour race when Andrew Jordan will share the driving duties.
