Simon's Rolls (June 2006)

My friend Simon ( who also appears here -> https://pbase.com/jensfoto/teama ) is as passionate about racing cars as I am about taking pictures. He acquired an extremely rare thing last year - Marina Roll-Royce "Andrews Special", which is the only racing car Rolls-Royce ever built a works engine for. This is it. These were taken at its first outing which was the historic sports car support race at the British Grand Prix. Unfortunately engine trouble meant the car didn't race that day, but it showed considerable promise in free practice and should run well when the engine and gearbox have been sorted.
