Ah! Castrol Achievement booklets! Your post made me dig out mine from 1957 and 1959. I've also started re-reading Anthony Pritchard's "Ford vs Ferrari - the battle for Le Mans".
For the record I was 18 at the time of the '66 race and remember being glued to (I think) the BBC Light Programme for hourly updates through the night.
