A doctor friend lived near Mike and Big Jim in Mayfair, London, in '60-62, he had a Jag XK140 Mike was keen on driving. Doc was worried at car weaving all over the place - 'race.bred!?' - surely something was wrong? Asked Mike about it as they roared out of town at TT speeds (wide-eyes!) "They all do that, rock-hard suspension stops the car wallowing in corners. Up to the driver to hold it on the straights." Er... ok. Many racecar drivers died as it took ages to cut them free from wreckage.

Sad how he talks about driving - V - riding and how he felt unsafe in a car then he dies in a car accident, R.I.P.
