Ecurie Cod Fillet?
The Ecurie Cod Fillet is a genuine motor club, founded in the 1950s by Roy Fidler (hence Fidler's Fish Finger Emporium) and John Hopwood. Membership is by invitation only and restricted to what some refer to of legends of motorsport. It is also described as 'mysterious' - I must admit that Don Barrow's site, in an article about Ecurie Cod Fillet, more than hints at inflatable ladies and strippers!Recently added

The great meat pie race
Eric Jackson is a member of Ecurie Cod Fillet – an elite club composed of rally drivers from days gone by - or as he calls it ‘the old farts’ club’. Shortly after the success of the Corsair v Windsor Castle race, this was published in the Ecurie Cod Fillet Gazette.
