| Video Discription | During 1974, Staffordshire Aston Martin dealer, Robin Hamilton, a former Rolls-Royce mechanic, began competing a 1970 Aston DBS V8 (DBSV8/10038/RC) in AMOC (Aston Martin Owners Club) racing events. During three years of rapid development, with the car modified almost beyond recognition, the chassis number was changed to RHAM/1 (Robin Hamilton Aston Martin #1) with the intention of competing in the 1977 Le Mans 24 hour race. Whilst this wasn't a works car, support was provided by the Aston Martin factory, and indeed lessons learned from the wind tunnel test sessions were applied in the form of front air dam and rear spoiler. RHAM/1 made its debut at the Silverstone Six Hours, a pre event to the Le Mans race, on 15 May 1977. By this time Hamilton had gained some financial input from several AMOC members, whose names appeared on the rear wing for the race. At this stage, the 5.3-liter, naturally-aspirated V8 engine would now produce 520 bhp at 6,750 rpm with Weber carburettors. The car was also a Group 5 car rather than a Group 4, which would mean it would have to race against the turbocharged Porsches. Hamilton and Preece did finish, but they failed to reach the final standings due to insufficient laps completed. After the race, Hamilton had to modify the cooling of the rear brakes, otherwise the car would never last the 24-hour period. RHAM/1 competed in its first 24 Hour event when it raced at the 1977 Le Mans 24 hour race. With drivers David Preece, Mike Salmon and Robin Hamilton himself. A request was made to move to the GTP category from the competitive Group 5, where opposition was deemed less strong. This request was granted by the organisers. Despite a complicated qualification, the race went pretty well so much so that they finished 17th overall and 3rd in the GTP class. For the following years RHAM/1 was modified even more, with the V8 fitted with twin Garrett turbos, a total different body style and aero, plus of course some weight reduction. It remained in this form until a decade ago when a British enthusiast and collector purchased and restored it to its original 1977 specs and style (as you see it in this video).
