The Jim Clark Trust has announced plans for a new major event to mark the 60th anniversary of the Scotsman’s landmark Formula 1 world championship victory in 1963.
To be held within the picturesque Duns Castle Estate on the Scottish Borders, the 60th anniversary weekend will gather together many cars either previously owned or formerly raced by Jim Clark, and a star attraction is due to be the Lotus 38 which Clark drove in the 1967 Indy 500. Although he retired that year with a blown engine, the 38 still has the distinction of being the first rearengined car to win the Indy 500 when Clark took the laurels two years earlier.
