Cooper T41

This car competed in the HGPCA Pre-'66 GP Cars race at the VSCC's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in September 2007.
It's Ian Horner's 1956 1,460cc Cooper T41, and on 10 May 2016 I showed a photograph of this car at a VSCC meeting at Oulton Park in 2006. The T41 was designed by Owen Maddock and this Wikipedia article tells you the story of Owen Maddock and the early Cooper years.

Cooper T41

This car competed in the Hawthorn Memorial Trophy race at the VSCC's meeting at Oulton Park in June 2006.
It's Ian Horner's 1956 Cooper T41, a car which was built for the new 1½ litre Formula 2 which started that year. Cooper eventually developed this car into the 2½ litre T51 with which Jack Brabham won his first World Championship in 1959.
