Advantages: Greatest driver in the 1960s, a proper gentleman Disadvantages: No longer with us
This is a review of a number of sites in Scotland linked to the late Jim Clark which are little known about except to local residents & racing enthusiasts.
Gentlemen Jim as he was affectionately known was probably one of the greatest racing drivers of his time. A time when motor racing was all about participating & winning, not the money & glamour obsessed sport it has now become where sponsorship deals are more important than anything else.

Advantages: Tragic re-inactment of a true event Disadvantages: Not widely known, and now forgotton.
