Donald Iszatt

Donald Iszatt  was one of the regulars, for a while, and yet we know very little about him, so please get in touch if you can help us. He  started racing in 1954, in a Cooper and continued through to 1956. Rarely taking the major races he nevertheless produced some good performances and was regularly well placed with the occasional win. He ran a JAP engine, by then thoroughly outclassed by the Nortons, making any place in an open race, very respectable. Here are some of his results:

Brands Hatch, 19th April 1954, 4th in Heat 1 for the Junior Race. Brands Hatch, 27th December 1954, 1st in Heat 1 for the Yuletide Trophy, 3rd in Final.
