SIERRA COSWORTH EXPERIENCE (Rewrite) A story from Northcote in 1987

Richard Keith Sanders

If I remember, I won and would have liked nothing better than to drive with John thorough the French Countryside for four days or so as fast as we could go, with safety.

However, and it was a big however.

It was only two and a half years after I had experienced a heart attack and really thought it inadvisable to take on something so stressful when I was still not really sure how stable the old ticker was from day to day!!

I believe John had second thoughts too as he was married with a young family and the event was a long return journey to one of the premier wine areas of France and back again, with the new wine.

It was not without serious risk.......although defined as NOT a race!!

The Cosworth was some beast and a delight to drive, certainly the fastest pair of wheels I had ever driven........we could really have had some fun with that car but with my health record at the time, I could not be certain we would return in one piece, or even return at all!
