RIDGWAY IMPRESSES ON GRADUATION TO F2

-

Graham Ridgway has stepped up from Historic Formula Ford 2000 to Historic Formula 2 in the ex-Richard Evans/Andrew Smith March 742.

Despite very limited running before his debut in the car at Classic Silverston­e at the end of August, Ridgway showed tremendous pace on his graduation and surprised himself by running in the top six.

“I was pretty daunted,” said Ridgway, 62, who only started racing 10 years ago. “The car is awesome. This is 280bhp against 130bhp in Historic FF2000.”

Like his FF2000 Reynard, the March is tended by Tom Smith at TS Historic Racing.

Ridgway also has a Lotus

Elan, which he shares in two-driver races with his daughter Jen.
