EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this print from 1930, we witness a thrilling moment at the Brooklands racing circuit. The image showcases two iconic racing cars of the time, the Lea-Francis Hyper and the Amilcar, as they compete in a BARC meeting. The Lea-Francis Hyper, with its striking blue color and registration number VT4411, is driven by A. S. Llewellyn. This classic car represents the epitome of speed and elegance with its powerful 1496S cc engine. On the other hand, we have Major A. Gardner behind the wheel of the Amilcar, adorned with registration number YV 4?1. This sleek vehicle boasts a smaller but equally impressive 1093S cc engine. As these skilled drivers navigate through Brooklands' famous banking turns, their determination to claim victory is palpable. The atmosphere is charged with excitement as spectators watch on eagerly. This snapshot not only captures a moment in motorsport history but also reflects Britain's passion for automobile racing during this era. It serves as a testament to both technological advancements and human skill on display at one of England's most renowned motor racing circuits. Preserved for future generations by Heritage Images, this monochrome photograph transports us back to an exhilarating time when speed was king and daring drivers like Llewellyn and Gardner pushed boundaries on every lap.
