Capturing the Thrill of Speed - Cars on the Start Line at a BARC Race Meeting, Brooklands, 1930
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by artist Bill Brunell, we are transported back to the exhilarating world of automobile racing in 1930s Britain. The image showcases a lineup of classic cars ready to roar into action at the prestigious Brooklands motor racing circuit. Each vehicle represents a different era and country, with an Alfa Romeo 3000 cc (No: 6) from Italy, Bugatti Type 37 (1496 cc) (Event Entry No: 9) from France, Riley (1089 cc) (Event Entry No: 5), and Lea Francis Hyper (1496S cc) (No:3). The scene is filled with anticipation as spectators gather around the starting line to witness these magnificent machines in motion. Crowds eagerly await their favorite drivers' skillful maneuvers while soaking up the electric atmosphere that only motorsport can provide. Bill Brunell's monochrome composition perfectly captures both the raw power of these vintage cars and the excitement radiating from those present. It serves as a time capsule transporting us to an era when motor racing was still in its infancy but already capturing hearts worldwide. This remarkable print not only celebrates British automotive history but also pays homage to all those involved – from dedicated drivers pushing their limits on track to officials ensuring fair play. A true testament to human ingenuity and passion for speed
