Titan Formula Ford History, Log Book #1
This is the information found in the first log book of my Titan MK6b Formula Ford. Restoration information can be found here.
On the cover of the first log book are the names Steve Cook and David Wilson. Sterling Racing Ser(vice) is written just below their names. I hope to find more information on the drivers and Sterling Racing Service. I assume that was the company that supported the car. Or, with the frequent usage by different drivers, maybe it was an arrive and drive rental.
Starting in 1975 the name Michele Woodruff is signed as the entrant (not driver). This may also support the rental theory.
On March 20th, 1976, Glenn Gray signed his first entry in the log book for the Sears Point Drivers School. His name can be seen on the side of the car in the log book photo below. The inside front cover of the first log book states that the car was yellow. Clearly the car was repainted sometime around 1975/76.
The photo below also shows the original style one piece MK6′b’ nose (pronounced ‘mark six b’). When I bought the car it had the later (and uglier) duck bill style MK6′c’ nose. For the restoration we wanted to take it back to the original spec, so it now has the same nose section as shown below.
