This print takes us back to the thrilling era of British motor racing in the 1930s. The image captures a momentous event, the British Mountain Handicap, held at Brooklands Automobile Racing Club in Surrey. Originally scheduled for Easter Monday but postponed due to inclement weather, this International meeting finally took place on a sunny Saturday. In this particular shot, we witness cars zooming past each other during the second heat of the race. The victor of this intense competition was H G Dobbs driving a Riley car numbered 6. As their powerful engines roar and tires screech against the track, one can almost feel the adrenaline pumping through their veins. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia to this photograph, transporting us back to a time when speed and daring captivated audiences worldwide. It serves as a reminder of how far automotive technology has come since then while also honoring the pioneers who paved the way for modern motorsports.
