Capturing the Thrills of Speed - MG C Type at JCC Double Twelve Race, Brooklands, May 1931
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the exhilarating world of motor racing in the 1930s. In this historic snapshot, we find ourselves amidst the pits at the prestigious JCC Double Twelve race held at Brooklands, England's iconic motor racing circuit. The focal point of this image is a magnificent MG C Type car (746 cc), driven by T. V. G. Selby and G. Hendy. These skilled drivers pushed their limits as they competed against formidable opponents on that fateful day in May 1931. As we delve deeper into the details, we learn that despite facing fierce competition and enduring grueling conditions, Selby and Hendy managed to finish an impressive 13th out of many participants. They completed a staggering 510 laps covering a distance of approximately 1338.9 miles with an average speed of 55.79 mph. Intriguingly captured within this frame is also W. J Brunell, a dedicated mechanic who played a crucial role in ensuring peak performance for Selby and Hendy's MG C Type throughout the race. This photograph not only immortalizes these brave racers but also serves as a testament to their passion for motoring excellence during an era when every turn was met with uncertainty and adrenaline-fueled excitement.
