Folks Of Interest Stirling Moss passes

Just read that the British racing great Sterling Moss passed at 90. While not a typical HAMB type hot rodder he was still a legend and had a slew of racing victories to his credit. RIP Mr. Moss. Hopefully this isn't considered too off topic but mods, if so please delete.

Wow. A true motorsports hero.

 

The Real Deal.

 

He was my Idol,after I read the book about him when I was a child.

 

Not off topic I don’t believe .
There is a great deal of stuff on here about Bonneville !

And he was a great racer as well .
You ever notice how many of the old racers had great names !

RIP Mr Moss

 

One tough S.O.B. !

Sorry to hear that... I was glad to see some of his racecars on display in the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart.... these were quite some hot rods.

 

RIP Sir Moss, what a racing legend.. Sad news to hear...Loved watch the vintage footage of him racing

 

Condolences to the Moss family and friends in passing of Stirling...no question a revered influential racer...may He Rest in Peace

Regards,
Stogy

 

Yes he was one of the true greats. Rip

 

Yep, a true legend - sincere sympathy to his Family, friends and fans

 

I can remember watching the 24 hours of LeMans one year and as he was signing autographs a Rolls Royce powered RAF bomber came flying over, so he stops, politely asks the crowd for silence and just sat there listening quietly with a warm smile on his face. RIP Sir Stirling.

The title of this thread "STERLING MOSS PASSES" was probably spoken or thought countless times by his competitors as Sterling passed them on the track.

RIP Sterling, you were golden!

 

Brain fart on my apart. Mainly thinking of his road racing exploits I completely forgot about Bonneville. A truly great man in all aspects.

 

Truly a multi talented man, will miss him.

 

I remember that Stirling Moss was on the box art for my first Aurora Model Motoring HO race set. Good memories!

 

Drove when men were men with no power steering and lucky to have a good quality safety belt, helmet, or roll over bar. RIP..

 

slot car racing back in the sixties every body wanted to be Stirling Moss......absolute legend in his own time!

 

RIP Sterling...

 

Read his autobiography when I was a young fellow.
very interesting and insightful as to European
racing. Would read it again if I still had it.

 

Talented, tough and outspoken. He carried himself well, as most International
racers from that time did. Take the time to dig up his autobiography, "All But My Life".

 

rest in peace

 

That trophy girl is off the chart, good lawrd. Sorry RIP Mr. Moss.

I’m assuming he thought the girl was an accessory?

A tough customer who could drive just about anything. Sir Sterling Moss has Passed.

 

Was teamed for a while with Juan Fangio. Argueably the best pair of road race team mates in history.
