Goodwood Festival of Speed 2017: Jim Clark's 1967 Vollstedt-Ford
Run up the hill in Jim Clark's 1967 Vollstedt-Ford Indycar. This was the last indycar that Jim competed in. He put it on the front row of the Rex Mays 300--battled with Dan Gurney for the lead before his day ended with an engine problem. The restored car was invited to the 2017 Goodwood Festival of Speed.

Rolla Vollstedt built several Indy cars over his long career, including 2 1967 Indy Cars. Over the years many of the top drivers of the era drove or competed in the 1967 cars.

Tipke-Offy Indy Car
มุมมอง 1.9K10 ปีที่แล้ว
NW Motorsports Hall of Fame member Jim Tipke designed and built over 100 race cars during his race car building career. This video highlights his design and fabrication of Tom Sneva's first Indy car. Tom passed his "Rookie Test" during the month of May at Indy in 1973 in the Tipke-Offy. The car returned to the Speedway for the 2014 Vintage Indy Exhibition race week.
Very classy. Thank you for this. :)
I recently got a 1970 Spokane newsletter that featured Mr. Tipke’s all wheel drive rear engine car he built for Tom Sneva. It’s BEAUTIFUL!
Jimmy Clark was my hero as a young kid. I was at Riverside that day. We were at Riverside every time Jimmy raced there. It was the last race my father went to. It is great to see an old car come back to life. Good choice of music. Thanks for the Video.
Gurney vs. Clark MAGNIFICENT
Great video ,delta force music , what a trip!!!
67 up to 3liter and no wings yet
If those Lotus F1 cars had a bit more reliability Jim would have been world champion in 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965 and 1967...
Music video👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎💩💩
Ditch the awful noise.
he was my HERO growing up I was a teenager I read everything I could find about JIM CLARK. In 1997 I was able to go to DUNS Scotland and see a small museum they had next to a small post office. I will never forget it.
I remember seeing that car in a guy’s basement in St. Louis 30 years ago.
Wonderful story. Bless those that restored her back to racing condition. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
1350Lbs of car.. (a fully dressed Harley Davidson comes out at around 750lbs) aircraft style construction incredible power to weight ratio..what 450hp?
Another legend! !! Chris Economaki 😄😄😄😄😄😎😎😎🍺🍺🍺🍺
Racing became more exciting with him at the mike . Before reporters started asking about ' how are your feelings " .
I wonder what danny Sullivan would feel about seeing one of the cars he drove lapping at the ol brick yard vif he was or is able to be there
brian blessing yea he is still alive
Jim Clark a true legend.
Hello from the Mckinney's in south Louisiana! ! Love vintage motor sports, Jim Clark, Ayrton Senna are my 2 favorite drivers.
who's 1984 indy car was this and what was it's best finish in the 84 indy 599
The car did not make the race Brian! Though solid and beautiful, the DSR-1's were stuck at 196 and they needed at least 200 to get in the show that year. Nonetheless, Danny Sullivan went ahead and took a very consistent 4 lap run at 196 and this consistency indicated to me "this was as all the car had in it." I believe the team either ended up withdrawing the entry or the car was outright bumped? In either case, Team Shierson ended up purchasing Sullivan a brand new 'very competitive' 1984 Lola chassis. This was very same chassis which only Mario Andretti had and who ended up winning a lot of races in and won the Championship with. Sullivan put the Lola solidly, if not 'easily' in field at over 203 and was moving fast during the race until being caught up in minor collision during yellow flag. Sullivan would wind up winning 3 races that year including the Pocono 500 with the Lola and this got him noticed by Penske. I do not think Sullivan's Indy teammate Johnny Rutherford even made an official attempt in the other DSR-1. He was eventually released by Shierson to pursue other opportunities and found quick refuge in one of Foyt's 1984 March chassis. Ole Lone Star JR's former Texan and rival had stepped to the plate and Johnny got in.
"The farmacias is my job; car racing is my hobby" Jim Clark (1936 - 1968) British Fórmula 1 driver World Champion in 1963 and 1965.
Great stuff ......thank you so much.
What a racing driver Jim Clark was...even better bloke by all accounts as well
The greatest. Rog. Pacific sunset records
We were at Riverside that day. My first Indy Car race. Great memories!
horrible music! for a nice collection of pictures!
Wrong! Wonderful music.
Horrible music? Are you kidding?
insensitive use of music!!! The sound of the racecar was all that is needed!
A much better video if it had no music.
kinda funny how a bunch of hicks from the pacific northwest could take a mediocre car and put in a world champion and give the car a chance to compete on the world stage.
This is what’s wrong with racing today,it can’t be done
Jim Clark - By far the greatest racing driver ever - No doubt ! The complete genius, the ultimate driver. Clark could walk on water, simply out of this world. He is unmatched in history of the sport - nobody reached performances like Nürburgring 1000 hm 1962, GP Belgium 1963 in horrible rain, he won by over 4 minutes...GP Italy 1967.......
Jerry Proper also raced and still has a Vollstedt. They took the small cammer Ford out and it's had SBC power in it since Jerry bought it in the 70's. It's NOT for sale. With the aluminum Donavan engine, Ole' Prope TERRORized Phonix. BAD ASS. STILL CAN, STILL WOULD, it just takes MONEY.
It a little hard not to become emotional watching this video. I love how you brought the car back to life, and then what's even better Rolla was still around, that amazed me. The list of who's who that drove the car is pretty amazing. Rolla seems to have had a pretty open mind when it came to drivers.
The reason Jimmy Clark where is suicide after the race worse because he wanted Rolla to finally win a race and to prove that Rolla had built the fastest car in the world. Of course he proved that until he blew the engine. Too bad he didn't finish the race and win the race for Rolla.
This is supposed to read the reason Jimmy Clark was so sad
If I had a pound for every time Jim Clark over revved his engine, I reckon I'd have a pound.
Yes it was unusual. Jimmy Clark was used to a Formula 1 gearbox that shifted in Reverse of the IndyCar gearbox. After he got the lead he might have relaxed a little bit and forgotten which gearbox he had in his hand. In any case is shifted into a lower gear accidentally and when I pop the clutch the engine revved to 15000. I don't believe he was so sad about it that my uncle said he had tears in his eyes. Jimmy said to Rolla that he made a big mistake and would not accept the money Rolla was going to pay him. Jim Clark was one great man. And perhaps the greatest racer of all time.
Besides this being Jim Clark's last Indy Car race, it was one of the very few times Clark drove a race car that was not a Lotus. I wonder what Lotus chief Colin Chapman thought about that?
I don't know what Chapman may have thought, but in the Jim Clark bio that came out after his death, Clark was highly enthused about racing a Champ car on a road course, as he was curious how the Ford DOHC Indy engine would do on a road course; as at that time, it had more horsepower than the Ford-Cosworth 3 liter engine in 1967 Formula 1. But, there was the trade-off of the F1 cars being lighter than the Champ cars.
Huge Jim Clark fan here. Hadn't seen the footage from the race at Riverside, so a big thanks. And then another massive thanks for restoring the car back to its original condition.
RIP Jim Tipke, you will be missed by your loved ones. 11/4/2015
Great Builder!!!
