Murray Ford



Name: Murray Ford
Race Number CS9
How did you get involved in Autograss? My brother literally dragged me along, didn't fancy it much. Then he asked for a tow to go and pick up a car. Cheers Steven
Have you been involved in any other motorsport? Yup, not in any order - 1 season in National Hot rods, 2 seasons in 2 litre Saloon Stocks, 17 seasons in Brisca Formula 2. Several 24 hour go- kart races plus hundreds of go-kart league meetings. And I still cant drive. Although the crashes are getting faster !!
Who is your hero? A bloke called Hamish Buchanan, from the stock cars at Newtongrange.
What have you done that you’re most proud of? That'll be my daughter, although I'm pretty chuffed with the new car as well.
If you won the lottery, what would be the first addition in your garage? Nissan 350Z, or maybe a Shelby Mustang if I'm dreamin'
What is your "claim to fame"? Top points scorer at a stock car meeting with 107 F2s.
What other interests do you have Eh. When am I supposed to find time for anything else. I do spend too much time on the Internet, and listening to dodgy 80's music. My favourite toy is the welder, I'm happiest when I'm building/repairing something.
Tell us something interesting about yourself: I buy my shoes in the kiddies dept !! D'you know what they say about blokes with wee feet - they spend less on shoes.
Anything else you would like to tell us about: I have a nasty habit of not keeping race cars for very long. So dont be surprised if you see the new one up for sale, or me turning up in something completely different, although it'll never be front wheel drive.
