early Westwood, 1961


A clipping from Competition Press. A race from May 7, 1961 -- almost to the day of this post.

Bob McLean had come back from the Rob Walker driving school. He would go on to quickly become the so-called "king of Westwood" and 1965 Canadian driving champion.

Not sure if Tony Boom is still around. I think I was told it wasn't a nom de plume. I understand that CP/Autoweek is putting together an archive of the old racing newspaper to celebrate its 50th anniversary.
