The historic racing ace keeping classic Jaguars winning
An ace preparer of historic Jaguars, Gary Pearson is also one of the world's leading drivers of some of the greatest sports-racers, and has built an enviable record of success in the major Goodwood meetings. Now 60, he's showing no signs of slowing down
Not many people make their car racing debut in a Jaguar D-type, but it seems entirely appropriate for Gary Pearson. He has been one of historic racing's leading exponents for more than a quarter of a century, driving a wide variety of cars, yet is most readily associated with the machines from Coventry.
His father, John Pearson, knew long-time Jaguar Cars boss Lofty England and formed Pearsons Engineering, which is still known for its work restoring and preparing Big Cats.
