1965 Jaguar XKE E-Type Navigation
The SCCA C-Production class in amateur racing was dominated by Datsun for many years when Gran Turismo Jaguar, a small Ohio dealer with a following of enthusiasts, began massaging the 1970s E-Type Jaguars believing they could make competitive race cars out of them. The 1980 SCCA Runoffs at Road Atlanta was their chance to prove it - and they did.
GTJ Old Number 19 is 'The most competitive E-Type Jaguar in road racing history,' according to its owner. It is the car that beat Paul Newman and the three factory-supported, money-is-no-object Datsun 280Z race cars for the 1980 SCCA C-Production National Championship. The car was 15 years old at the time. At the wheel was Fred Baker who managed to win despite efforts to push him off the track, and repeated protests against the car's roll cage, brakes, exhaust system, bonnet and aerodynamics. The Jaguar had been carefully prepared to meet all the rules and Baker brought it in for a 7-second win over Newman in the closest Datsun.
