Eric Broadley came very close to success in his 1st year of GP racing thanks to the skill of Jol)n Surtees and backing by the Bowmaker Banking House, the Lola Climax V8 finished 2nd in two Grands Prix and won the 2000 Guineas at Mallory Park. The cars painted dark blue with maroon nose bands and white wheels were co driven by Roy Salvadori . The mufti tube space frame chassis was subject to modification,ion during the season to improve handling problems during the early season events. John Surtees finished 4th in Monte carlo, 5th in Belgium and France, followed by a second in the sunny British GP # 24 followed by another second place in the mist and rain around the Nurburgring #14. The Bowmaker money now began to run out and the cars became unreliable. Roy Salvadori failed to finish any GP race.
The Bowmaker Racing Team was managed by Reg Parnell, who ran the cars again in 1963 under his own banner for Chris Amon and another champion motorcyclist Mike Hailwood.
