The Racing Coopers by Arthur Owen (Cassell, 1959). Is this book attributable to Arthur Owen? Rupertlt (talk) 01:20, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

1963: Malaysia Grand Prix (thought to be on the Thomson Road circuit, Singapore) Arthur Owen had gearbox troubles but finished fifth in his Cooper Climax. Owen had a Brabham BT8A Climax 1980cc (chassis BT8 SC-1-64) for the 1964 event, which was rained out. Can anybody stand this up? Rupertlt (talk) 01:39, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
