BA Davey in his AC at the JCC 200 Mile Race, Brooklands, Surrey, 1921. Artist: Bill Brunell (AC 1496 cc. Event Entry No: 21. Driver: Davey, B. A. Retired with a seized camshaft after 32 laps. Place: Brooklands. J. C. C. 200-mile Race. Date: 22.10.21) In this photograph taken by renowned artist Bill Brunell, we are transported back to the thrilling world of motor racing in the early twentieth century. The image captures BA Davey behind the wheel of his AC car during the prestigious JCC (Junior Car Club) 200 Mile Race held at Brooklands race circuit in Surrey in October of 1921. With his goggles on and a confident smile adorning his face, Davey exudes sheer joy as he prepares for this exhilarating challenge. However, fate had other plans for him that day as mechanical issues forced him into an unfortunate retirement after completing only thirty-two laps due to a seized camshaft. This snapshot not only showcases the classic beauty of British automobiles from that era but also pays homage to the dedication and passion exhibited by drivers like BA Davey who risked it all for their love of speed and competition. As we admire this vintage masterpiece captured by WJ Brunell's lens, we can't help but be reminded of how far automotive technology has come since then while appreciating the timeless
