The Car Goodwood Named a Beer After

Earlier this week, Goodwood Road and Racing posted a fascinating article on DK Engineering's Tojeiro-Jaguar and its history at the Goodwood Circuit. This car's outing at the 1959 Goodwood Tourist Trophy with Masten Gregory at the wheel sparked the inspiration for the name of Goodwood Brewery's 'Lucky Leap' American Pale Ale.

Written by Ethan Jupp, the article interviews DK's own James Cottingham and explains the story behind the race, the beer, and the car's subsequent adventures in historic motorsport at Goodwood with DK Engineering. Have a read of the article on Goodwood's website here. Lucky Leap APA can be purchased online here.
