Win Percy
Winston "Win" Percy (born 28 September 1943, near Tolpuddle, Dorset) is a former motor racing driver from England. He competed in many classes of motorsport during his long career, but is perhaps most famous as one of the greats of touring car racing. Joe Saward of ''Autosport'' magazine once described him as being "''often regarded as the World's Number One Touring Car Driver''".〔http://www.brdc.co.uk/brdcarchive.cfm/flag/2/member_id/106〕 Percy was British Touring Car Champion three times, and remains the most successful non-Antipodean driver ever to compete in Australia's premier national motorsport event: the Bathurst 1000km.
==The early years==
Percy found his way into motor sport through his first employment as a motor mechanic at his local garage. His first race was in 1964, in a local time-trial event driving his own road-going Ford Anglia 1200. He won, beating drivers of far more powerful cars in the process. While initially he pursued competitive driving as a hobby, his innate talent quickly resulted in many high-placed finishes in national-level races, including taking all three victories in the 1973 televised rallycross races at Cadwell Park. On the back of these results he turned professional in 1974, driving Spike Andersons Samuri Datsun 240Z in the British Modified Sports Car Championship. Once again, he won.
