Joe Fry (October 26, 1915, Chipping Sodbury – July 29, 1950, Blandford Camp) was a British racing driver and member of the Fry's Chocolate family. He became the primary driver for the highly successful Shelsley Special "Freikaiserwagen", created by his cousin David Fry and Hugh Dunsterville, with help from Dick Caesar. Joe set a number of hill records during the late 30s.
Tragically, Fry was killed at the wheel of the Freikaiserwagen at the 1950 Blandford hillclimb, less than two months after driving a Maserati 4CL in the 1950 British Grand Prix at Silverstone.
