Aston Martin Project 214 (1963) at the Goodwood Revival 2011.

Entrant Simon Draper; Driver Julian Draper and Stuart Graham

The Aston Martin DP214 was a prototype sports car developed by Aston Martin for use in grand touring-style racing, including the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Two DP214s were built in 1963, with one surviving today.
Just like its predecessor, the DP212, to comply with GT regulations, the DP214 was based on DB4GT chassis, numbers #0194/R and #0195/R. The body was completely redesigned, using elements from the DP212 such as the Kamm tail rear end. The bodywork would be wider than the DP212 though, and the nose would be a completely new design. The DP214 would also use a production Tadek Marek 3.7 litre Inline-6, (bored to 3750 cc from 3670 cc) unlike the DP212's larger 4.0 litre engine. (Wikipedia)

Introducing Stuart Graham:

TT winning son of a TT Winner!!!! A top level bike racer of the 1960`s. Stuart is the only son of a Tourist Trophy Winner who won the Tourist Trophy himself. He then switched over to cars and became the only man to win the TT on two wheels and on four. His father, the great Les Graham, was World Champion in 1949; but in 1953, when Stuart was just 11, Les was killed on the Isle of Man. Six years later Stuart began racing bikes himself.
