This was one of the contestants in the Derek Bell Trophy race at the Gold Cup meeting at Oulton Park in August 2008.
It's the 1978 Surtees TS20 of Jeremy Smith and is seen here at Lodge Corner during the race. This is chassis TS20/01, the car that was driven in the 1978 season by Vittorio Brambilla whose best result with this car was a seventh place in the Spanish Grand Prix at Jarama. The TS20 had the 2,993cc V8 Ford Cosworth DFV engine and competed in the Formula 1 class of this Formula Libre race at Oulton Park, though the programme of the event strangely says that it had a 2 litre engine.
