[TR] Sir Stirling Moss RIP

[Jim Henningsen]

So sad to hear, but so glad the link of the video with Patrick Stewart was sent out last week.  I thoroughly enjoyed watching that being a fan of Sir Stirling and Sir Patrick.  Ordered a diecast replica of the Vanwall he used to win the British GP and really want to get a Caterham now.   One of my favorite drivers of all time.  Wish he could have driven for Ferrari through the 60s.  How many world championships would he have one.  My 81 TR8 is named after Sir Stirling!  

 

I shall hoist one in his honor today!

Very sorry to hear this. He was one of my favorites in motorsport. I especially loved the story of his drive winning the 1955 Mille Miglia written by his navigator, Denis Jenkinson.

Not bike racing but car racing and a new look at Patrick Stewart if you're a Trek fan..  I happened to idolize Moss, and was very fortunate to spend a day with him at a Santa fe car show as co-judges. I felt just like Stewart

at the conclusion of our meeting.. FWIW
