Clark all the way for me.

Probably a good time to mention that the Jim Clark International Memorial Rally is on in Duns in a few weeks. Definetly worth a visit as it is part of the British Championship aswell as the super fast Irish Championship and is the only tarmac closed road event in the British mainland! With record speeds around 130mph its well worth going and you can visit his museum while your up there.

I know, sorry. Originally the list included Hawthorn aswell as DC, JB and both Hills. Just didn't have enough room and he was the one I sacrafised. Sorry again.

Moss was a great driver, but also so incredbibly versitle (much like clark) Trying to choose between them is so very hard.

Mansell was definately a "Peoples Champion"

Stewart was also one of those rare drivers who transend the sport (in this case by fighting for increased saftey standards)

But I'l have to choose...

...Sterling Moss. You don't get a London Cockney Ryhming slag phrase made out of you unless your something special!

"Who d'ya think you are? Sterling Moss?!"

He is Stirling after the town, not Sterling after the currency

LOL...sorry I always do that, its out of habbit...Damned Geography lessons! (as a kid we had to learn the currencies of the EU countries - this was before the Euro btw - so Pounds Sterling kind of stuck)
