Might it be Kit Heathcote? He lives in Canada and perhaps made the trip to the
Glen.

The story goes that Ken Richardson or a member of his Triumph Works TR2
team
back in 1953 or '54 pulled out the floor plug for the jack before the
race
and set up a funnel and a long hose so he could "use the facilities".
During the race, he tried it (for the first time) and once the funnel
was
full, the aerodynamic force blew it all back up into his face. Back
then,
they didn't wear full racing helmets, but goggles.
