This car competed in the Hawthorn Memorial and Spanish Trophies Race for Pre-1961 Racing Cars at the Vintage Sports Car Club's meeting at Oulton Park in July 2015.
It's the 1957 Cooper T41 of Duncan Ricketts that was driven in the race by Matt Ricketts, and which the programme of the event says has a 1,220cc engine. The T41 was Cooper's first step in Formula 2 racing which only two years later led to Jack Brabham winning the World Championship in the 2½ litre Formula 1 Cooper Climax T51.
Here's Matt Ricketts at Lodge Corner during the race.
