He was born James Clark Jr. into a farming family at Kilmany House Farm, Fife, the youngest child of five, and the only boy. In 1942 the family moved
to Edington Mains Farm, near Duns, Berwickshire, in the Borders. He was educated at primary schools, first in Kilmany and then in Chirnside, and then
following three years of preparatory schooling at Clifton Hall near Edinburgh he was sent to Loretto School in Musselburgh, near Edinburgh.
7 April 1968, Jim Clark's life tragically ended in a crash.

I really like that era of motorsport with Clark and Hill.
Graham Hill's Lotus 49 is definately my favourite car at work.
