Southern Yosemite Automotive Film Festival - Oakhurst, CA - A Yearly Celebration of Automotive Films

Davey Jordan

Beginning with a Porsche Speedster in 1959, Davey went on to win numerous SCCA championships and was driver of the year often. His successes got him picked by Otto Zipper to drive his 904's, often with Scooter Patrick. Then it was on to the USRRC series, in Carrera 6's and later in Lola's. Carroll Shelby then selected Davey to drive the Toyota 2000 GT in SCCA National events. James Garner, with the newly formed American International Racing, had Davey driving at Daytona and Sebring, first in Corvettes, then in Lola T70 coupes. The Garner program moved to Formula 5000 with teammate Scooter Patrick, on to a Formula 5000 Eagle then to the Vasek Polak Porsche 908.
