[TR] [6pack] Jim Clark tribute in The Grand Tour episode

[Greg Lemon]

Late to this party. Just watched the bit onClark.  Not old enough to
remember Clark racing, but the tribute was very well done.  Knew he (and
other racers) participated in a lot other classes back then, and that Clark
was killed in an F2 car, didn't know he was so dominant in those other
classes as well.
