RAM (1983-1985)

Son Stuart is still involved with the sport, and has been now for over 20 years. Mick himself still retains an interest in the sport, but now works as a bathroom and kitchen fitter. Later worked with old RAM partner John MacDonald as a scrutineer. Mick and John were partners in a car dealership in Willesden in the 1960's and John raced for a while. When he stopped, he persuaded Mick to jointly purchase and run a Formula 5000 car for Alan Jones. They then entered Formula 1 with Brabham's, but they had a lot more success in the Aurora British F1 series. They became sole constructors in 1983 after previously hooking up with March. Ralph then ran a number of Formula 3000 teams before becoming a noted fabricator. Now lives in Northamptonshire, near the Silverstone circuit.
