EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from the 1930s, we are transported back to a time when motor racing was at its peak. The image showcases three iconic cars lined up on the starting grid at Brooklands, ready to embark on an exhilarating journey in the renowned BRDC 500 Mile Race. At the forefront is George Harvey-Noble's powerful MG 747S cc with entry number 5. Behind him stands Charles Goodacre in his sleek Austin 744S cc (entry number 2), while Bert Hadley takes his position left of center in another Austin Seven (entry number 1). These skilled drivers were about to push their machines to their limits as they competed for glory on this legendary motor racing circuit. Surrounded by a team of dedicated mechanics and race enthusiasts, these men epitomize the passion and determination that defined motorsport during this era. Each car represents a piece of automotive history - classic designs that have stood the test of time. This photograph not only captures a thrilling moment in British motorsport but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and innovation. It reminds us of an era when speed was king, where men risked it all for victory on dusty tracks like Brooklands. As we gaze upon this vintage snapshot, we can almost hear the roar of engines and feel our hearts race alongside these brave drivers. It is an homage to those who paved the way for modern-day motorsport and a reminder that even today, there is nothing quite like witnessing man and machine come together in pursuit of greatness.
