Its central location meant enthusiasts from the Midlands and North of England could now see the top drivers in action without the need to travel to the south-west of London and the Brooklands circuit to do so. The cars lined-up in this <strong>LAT collection<\/strong> photo <strong>(C7225)<\/strong> are taking part in the first event of the day, a five lap handicap. Eight cars were entered, just six made it to the start line and <strong>Ken Wharton&#8217;s\u00a0 Austin Seven (no.33)<\/strong> rolled on the first corner, fortunately without injury to the driver. After this incident the race was won easily by<strong> D.S. Handley<\/strong> in his <strong>MG<\/strong> &#8216;<strong>C&#8217; Type Midget (no.30)<\/strong>. A full report on the race and the rest of the meeting can be found on page 501 of the September 1935 edition of <em>Motor Sport<\/em> magazine. <strong>(Photo courtesy of Motorsport Images)<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column_text] The Triple M series of&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.prewarminor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12750"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.prewarminor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.prewarminor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.prewarminor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.prewarminor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12750"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.prewarminor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12750\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.prewarminor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12750"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.prewarminor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12750"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.prewarminor.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12750"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
