Uphill Racers: The History of British Speed Hill Climbing

Product Information

It comes with 2 spare exhausts to allow for different noise restricted venues so has quiet (99db) , medium ( 106db) and full bore (115db). The Vision was then extensively rebuilt and modified to accept one of the special turbocharged K Series engines which were developed by Rover for the MG EXF project. The car has proved to be a competitive proposition in speed events over the years but has not been used since being immaculately prepared with a freshly rebuilt engine.

Uphill Racers

We are still actively developing Hill Climb Racing and adding new vehicles, new stages and new content! Having been recently restored it would originally have been fitted with a 250cc Villiers engine but is currently fitted with a 500cc single cylinder GM speedway engine and a Norton gearbox. There aren't too many of these cars around so this gorgeous little car is both an investment opportunity as well as an enjoyable and competitive racer. This particular 1966, red, Johnny Walker JW4 has quite a comprehensive history of past owners and competition over the last 50 years and has probably one of the most complete histories of all the surviving JW4's of which more detail can be provided on request. This car was the 2014 Champion of Mondello and, following a complete rebuild, has competed in the HSA Speed Championahip for the last two seasons.
