The following years, 1970 and 1971, the sponsors continued to support AAC and they would be rewarded with team wins each year. The AAC team placed Antigua on the map as home of one of the top motor racing teams in the Caribbean.

As his tour with Pan American World Airways drew to a close, Jack had the car repainted, and eventually sold it in 1972. He had purchased the car for about $2500 and sold it for about $1600. "I almost gave the car away. My how times have changed."

After our three year successful competitions in the Caribbean, the team drivers were dispersed to different places around the world. Mike Tyrell and Charlie Moore took a stab at the London to Sydney Marathon. George Beasley pursued other fields back in the States and Jack moved on to his next tour in the Bahamas.

My racing career was short, but Wow! What a great experience! A period with the likes of Clark, Surtees, Hill, Moss and many others. A lot of Motor racing history has passed by since that time.

I continue today with great interest in motorcars and motor racing and through the years have owned four Austin Healey's, a Sunbeam Alpine, an Austin A10, and two Lotus Sevens.
