Trying to recreate Andy Taylor studio tape inserts will be a tough job!
from Typophile:
"I have managed to find my complete alphabet samples of this font.
However it appears Grignani redrew many of the characters for his book cover and may have also changed some of the weight through the stems. I have found out it was originally published by a Swizz photo-setting house and was available as headline setting via typesetters in London under various names. It appears to be a variation of the ECB font designed in 1958 for use on bank cheques. It appears to have disappeared after the typesetting houses went on of business in the late 80's.
I've drawn up a basic version for what I needed it for but would be interested to find some better samples than the ones I have and find out a little bit more about the font itself - if there were other versions and who should be credited for the original design."

Thanks Claude! Are the thick black lines in the 'Racing Division' made by hand, or is that an option in the Stripes font?

Possibly Dutch in origin?
