New Year Driving Tests Success at Brooklands

Monday 29 January 2018

47 pre-1939 cars competed within the hallowed confines of Brooklands Motor Course on Sunday 28 January as part of the traditional New Year Driving Tests.
A dozen fiendishly contrived tests which followed a “six before lunch and six after” format were tackled by all competitors. With use of the legendary Banking, Test Hill and Finishing Straight, the competitors excelled in the challenges set by the organising team.

Competitors and spectators alike also took the opportunity to visit the Museum’s wide range of buildings and exhibits, ensuring fun was had by all.

Overall honours were carried by Edward Williams in his 1929 Frazer Nash Super Sports with other notable performances including Edmund Burgess in his 1924 Bugatti T13 and Katie Forrest in her 1912 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost.

In all 17 Awards were won and all competitors enjoyed a day of exciting and challenging Tests.
