A former Battle of Britain pilot. When asked why he raced, he said, "I just can't do without the excitement after flying during the War".

He was a well-to-do gentleman and he raced an expensive and powerful Railton 4.5 litre capable of 60mph in second gear.

Suffered a broken neck at Ipswich in 1959, but continued racing.
