Chris was also involved with the Rocket Roadster project with Gordon Murray. At his forte in saloon and sports cars, he won the European Sports Car Championship in 1973, but he didn't really feature in single-seaters often. Started racing back in 1961 and carried on right up to 1984, when he appeared at his last Le Mans. He tried to visit as many historic festivals and events as he could. Chris also used to be a sheep farmer, as well as a photographer, interior designer and furniture designer.
