You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''LEC Refrigeration Racing''' was a UK [[Motorsport|motor racing]] team and [[Formula One]] constructor based at [[Bognor Regis|Bognor Regis, West Sussex]]. They participated in ten [[Grand Prix motor racing|Grands Prix]] using a [[March Engineering|March]] in ((F1|1973)) and their own car, the LEC CRP1, in ((F1|1977)).

==Formula One==

===1973===

In ((F1|1973)) [[David Purley]] hired a March 731 and with backing from his family's refrigeration company LEC Refrigeration, made a largely unsuccessful attempt at Formula One. Purley and the team made their debut in Monaco where the fuel tank broke. Purley did not make the restart at the [[1973 British Grand Prix|British GP]] after he spun off. It was at the [[1973 Dutch Grand Prix]], however, where Purley carried out arguably his most memorable actions. Upon witnessing a crash which left fellow British driver [[Roger Williamson]] trapped in his overturned and burning car, Purley abandoned his own race and attempted to save Williamson, who was participating in only his second Formula One race. Purley later recalled that upon arriving at the scene, he heard Williamson crying for help as the fire began to take hold. Purley's efforts to right the car and extinguish the flames were in vain as he received no help from nearby track marshals or emergency workers, in spite of attempts to encourage them, and other passing drivers, to come to his aid; Williamson died from [[asphyxia]]tion. Because the marshalls were not wearing fire resistant clothing and the passing drivers believed that Purley was attempting to extinguish his own car, having escaped a fiery crash unharmed; they had no idea that a second driver was involved. The team took their first finish at the [[1973 German Grand Prix|German GP]]. Purley also finished in [[1973 Italian Grand Prix|Italy]].

===1977===

LEC racing returned to Formula One in 1977 with their own LEC chassis designed by [[Mike Pilbeam]]<ref>((cite web|last=Walton|first=Jeremy|title=Interview: Design on the Hills, Translated by Mike Pilbeam|url=http://www.motorsportmagazine.com/archive/article/june-1978/44/interview-design-hills-translated-mike-p|work=[[Motor Sport (magazine)|Motor Sport]] magazine archive|date=June 1978|page=44|access-date=30 December 2019))</ref> and run by Mike Earle. It was this car in which Purley suffered serious injuries in an accident during pre-qualifying for [[1977 British Grand Prix|that year's British Grand Prix]]. He survived an estimated 179.8 [[g-force|g]] when he decelerated from 173&nbsp;km/h (108&nbsp;mph) to 0 in a distance of 66&nbsp;cm (26&nbsp;inches) after his throttle got stuck wide open and he hit a wall.<ref name="Purley">((cite web| author=Anton Sukup| title=''David PURLEY'' Silverstone crash| year=1977| url=http://www.asag.sk/bio/purley.htm| access-date=31 July 2006))</ref> For many years, this was thought to be the highest g-force ever survived by a human being.<ref name="Purley"/> He suffered multiple fractures to his legs, pelvis and ribs.

The second CRP1 has been restored and has competed in historic Formula One racing alongside a modern replica built by WKD Motorsport.<ref name="Brown">((cite web|last1=Brown|first1=Allen|title=Lec CRP1 car-by-car histories|url=http://www.oldracingcars.com/lec/crp1/|website=oldracingcars.com|access-date=22 September 2017))</ref>
