Rosemary Smith, rally driver for the Rootes car company
During the 1960s she won ladies awards in all the top international rallies, including the London-Sydney, the RAC and the Monte Carlo. In 1965 she was the outright winner of the Tulip Rally and was also chosen as the Texaco Sportstar of the Year.
Rosemary was a revelation at the time,work wise she was a dress designer,in a Hillman Imp she was a winner,check out the pictures!
A few weeks after the 1965 Tulip rally, which she won outright, and a few weeks before the Scottish Rally, Ms. Smith was at Silverstone invited to take a round of honour, accompanied by 'Tiny' Lewis.
