Pit Stops
The Routes Group will support the development of racing versions of the Hillman Imp and sponsor a comprehensive saloon-car racing programme under an agreement with Mr A. Fraser, head of the Alan Fraser Engineering Company. Mr Fraser, a former rally and racing driver, has already worked on the development of racing Imps at his headquarters at Hildenborough, Kent.
Under a three-year agreement with Rootes, he will have the support of the group’s engineering and competition departments and will be responsible for the Rootes racing programme, both in Britain and overseas. In addition to entering Hillman Imp teams for pro-duction-car racing, Mr Fraser will race other Rootes models in suitable events.
