In my last column, I cited the Connew as one of my favorite stories in motor racing. The Connew PC1 is probably the best Formula One car ever assembled in a shed by three mates. This leads me to ask what is the worst Formula One car ever made?
Try the Gleed-MG. Peter Gleed was from the North of England (our North is America’s South, a place where people speak funny and eat the most peculiar things) and he had the bright idea of mating a supercharged 750 cc, DOHC MG “R” engine to an elderly Cooper Mk IV (500 cc Formula Three).
