Description
John Rhodes was born in Wolverhampton in August 1927 into a family whose interest in motorsport was deep-rooted. His own interest started when his father took him to a race at a very early age. His golden racing years were the 1960s, a period of classic car racing and John Rhodes’ extravagant motoring antics involving high speed and smoking tyres earned him the name ‘Smokin’ Rhodes’. The crowds loved him and he enjoyed playing to them with his driving skills, often resulting in the destruction of the dipswitch in every race! John’s racing career included Formula One World Championship Grand Prix, the British Grand Prix and many others in a variety of cars.
