Canada's Raciest Blonde Diana Carter - VARAC

it was sold to Ross.
Ross de St. Croix drove “Miss
Whiz” during the year of 1962 and
1963 with some success.
He had one bad accident on June
9, 1962 when racing at the “Players
200” at Mosport. He collided with
Jim Hall, driving his Chaparral,
went into a gully and sustained facial
injuries. Miss Whiz was also a mess,
but Ross put it all back together and
raced the car through 1963.
At the end of 1963 Ross sold
“Miss Whiz” to Paul Muir, another
Canadian driver. Paul drove “Miss
Whiz” part of 1964 and in 1965.
“Miss Whiz” was “Canada’s lady of
the track.” She could have been called
“Miss Mosport” because of all the
races she competed there. Paul then
sold “Miss Whiz” in 1966 to Ken
Folger, who became a friend of mine,
in the United States. He drove “Miss
Whiz” as an amateur driver from
1966 thru 1969. “Miss Whiz” was
then retired and put away in an old
garage.
About six years ago, my friend
Ken went back to the city where Miss
Whiz had been stored, only to find
out that the car had been vandalized.
He sold me the car a year and a half
ago.
“Miss Whiz” now is on the
beginning of an extreme makeover. It
is not going be done at a restoration
shop, it will be done by my good
friend Rick Knoedler, a fantastic
mechanic with British cars, along with
myself. The only part that is missing is
the “original” magnesium rear wheels.
So if anyone can find me some “old
original wheels “please let me know. I
have “Miss Whiz” completely apart at
the present time. Any help or advice
would be greatly appreciated.
