About The Author
Jim Dudley
Jim Dudley was born in Bexleyheath, Kent, 1948. Married to Sue (1969), he has two daughters and a son: Joanne, Laura, and Paul. Jim went to technical college from 1966 to 1969, opened his first small garage in 1970, and in that same year, also had his first quick laps around Brands Hatch motor racing circuit in his first beloved Lotus Seven. Through the 70s Jim raced karts and saloon cars with some success. Jim went on to open a series of crash repair centers and garages with his brother Phil. These garages held stock of Sportscars such as Lotus and Ferrari and looked after many customer’s classic, specialist, and race cars, services including restoration and race preparation. However, Jim wanted to take it all a lot further, so Tiger Racing Ltd was formed in 1989, the first Tiger being the “Tiger Super Six”™. To date, over 2000 Tigers have been manufactured, with daughter Laura overseeing the Tiger parts department and son Paul overseeing the Tiger workshop. Jim still enjoys everything in the “Tiger scene,” manages to race one of the fleet Tigers once or twice through each season, and is a keen golfer.
