These Escort pics bring back many childhood memories. Does anyone remember the FordSport Club? My old man had a Mk l Lotus Cortina (in special order Alan Mann Racing red/gold
) and was a member. We used to get (I think monthly) magazines, and had binders, a grille badge and FS rally jackets amongst other stuff. One of the early issues had a free big B&W wall poster of the flying Mk l Escort being tested. As a car mad kid, the poster adorned my bedroom wall for years (before I graduated to Pirelli calendars and the tennis player scratching her bum poster
)

Met Roger once at MIRA but I knew Mick fairly well. Both sadly departed.Youtube, The Davids' Day -1965, on the Ford Heritage channel.
I worked with the other David in the film, David Rowe, until he retired some years ago.

I don't recognise David Wood. My time at Boreham was spent on trucks with only an occasional venture into the motorsport workshop.Youtube, The Davids' Day -1965, on the Ford Heritage channel.

Great archive film when international rallying was much simpler (and cheaper) than today. Makes me wonder if all that extra hassle and expense is worthwhile.
