To celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the closing of the Brooklands Race Track, an event was held with several of the original cars that once raced around the famous track. The final race at Brooklands was held on the August Bank Holiday, just before the outbreak of the Second World War. Thankfully our friend Wim te Riet made the trip and shared these great photos with us. Be sure to check out his Facebook Page for more.
