Bob Tullius was a racer. When he took on racing, he drove many types of cars, from Dodge Darts to Ford Mustangs, then Jaguar Es, XJS, Triumph TR8s and later, Jaguar XJR5s and 7s. He had a British Leyland dealership and when he took part of the GTP series, his goal was to improve the Jaguar image.
At the end of the 1975 season, the Jaguar E was no longer produced and British Leyland needed a new flagship.
Lord Stokes showed no interest in auto racing, but Michael Dale, British Leyland Vice President of Sales, remained enthusiastic about racing the XJS. He worked closely with Bob Tullius on the XJS program. The very first race for the XJS was at Mosport Trans Am in 1976. Bob Tullius led for most of the race in category 1, in which the car was entered. However, the car experienced air cooling problems, preventing him from close racing action. He finally took fourth.
When he entered IMSA for the first time, it was at Daytona in 1976, for the traditional year end Finale. He drove the Jaguar XJS that had been previously entered in the Trans Am series. Powered by a V12 5,3L, the car was a little short of power, but Bob Tullius was running fourth at halfway point, but he had to retire when the car's interior temperatures became unbearable.
