Veteran record breaker to repeat his triumph. Mrs F Edge. One of the greatest
Veteran record breaker to repeat his triumph.
Mrs F Edge.
One of the greatest triumph won on the famous Brooklands motor track will be recalled when the new concrete road course there is opened on Tuesday.
30 years ago Mrs F Edge, pioneer of the motor industry and of motor racing in this country, set up 24 hours record, covering 1, 581 miles at an average speed of more than 65 miles an hour.
On Tuesday Mr Edge drive over the new course in a car similar to that with which he established that record, at a time when the car was still regarded with official suspicion and not very long after the days when cars trundle through the streets behind a man with a red flag.
Capable of 80 mph.
Mr Edge, now 69, but looking 10 years younger, talk to those early days today.
The car with which he set is 24 hours record, he said, was a 60 horse power model with six 5 inch cylinders, and was capable of doing 80 miles an hour a very remarkable speed then. Speaking of his famous drive, Mr Edge said he had to change tyres 24 times during the 24 hours.
The bumping on the track was terrible he said. The track program into holes and it was impossible to dodge them

Veteran Record Breaker to Repeat His Triumph - Mrs F Edge, One of the Greatest
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from TopFoto. co. uk, we witness a momentous occasion as the legendary veteran record breaker, Mrs F Edge, prepares to relive her triumph on the famous Brooklands motor track. As the new concrete road course is set to be unveiled on Tuesday, memories of an extraordinary feat accomplished 30 years ago come flooding back. Mrs F Edge, a true pioneer in both the motor industry and motor racing in our country, astounded the world by setting a remarkable 24-hour record covering an astonishing distance of 1,581 miles at an average speed exceeding 65 miles per hour. This achievement was no small feat considering that cars were still viewed with suspicion by officials and not long after they trundled through streets behind men waving red flags. Now at the age of 69 but appearing ten years younger, Mr Edge will drive over the new course in a car reminiscent of that which propelled him to glory all those years ago. Capable of reaching speeds up to 80 mph – truly remarkable for its time – his original vehicle boasted six cylinders measuring five inches each. Reflecting on his historic drive today, Mr Edge recalls having to change tires an astounding twenty-four times during those grueling twenty-four hours. The track's treacherous conditions made it impossible to dodge holes and bumps along the way. As we gaze upon this evocative image capturing a moment frozen in time, we are reminded once again of Mrs F Edge's indomitable spirit and her place among motorsport's greatest legends.
