Scott Bloor

Scott Bloor was one of the most prolific competitors in Formula 3 and yet we know very little about him, so please get in touch if you can help us. Scott hailed from Oldham and started racing in 1952, in a Cooper Mk IV-JAP and continued right through until 1959, upgrading to a Mk VII for '54 and a Mk VIII in '55. Rarely taking the major races he nevertheless produced some good performances and was regularly well placed with the occasional win.
