Jim Clark is remembered for his ability to drive and win in all types of cars and series, Formula 1, Indianapolis, Tasman cars, sports and touring cars including the Lotus Cortina, with which he won the 1964 British Touring Car Championship. In 1966, he took part in the RAC Rally of Great Britain, again in the Lotus Cortina, being quickest on some of the early stages before crashing out. The rally was won by the similar car of Soderstrom and Palm.
