EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the exhilarating Bugatti Owners Club Lewes Speed Trials in Sussex, 1937. The focal point of the image is the sleek and powerful Frazer-Nash BMW 319/55, a classic car that exudes timeless elegance. With its distinctive design and roaring engine, this vintage automobile stands out among the crowd. Behind the wheel sits driver C. G. Fitt, ready to push this racing machine to its limits. The monochrome backdrop showcases a picturesque countryside avenue as Fitt prepares for his run down the lane. As he accelerates towards the finishing line, you can almost feel his adrenaline-filled drive through East Sussex's rustic roads. The event entry number 12 indicates Fitt's determination to compete against fellow racing enthusiasts at one of Britain's most prestigious motor sport events. This snapshot freezes a moment in time when speed and skill collided on that fateful day: September 4th, 1937. Preserved by Bill Brunell, this photograph captures not only an iconic vehicle but also reflects an era defined by passion for motoring excellence. It serves as a testament to both British engineering prowess and our enduring fascination with classic cars from yesteryears. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history from within our modern world, it reminds us of how far we have come while honoring those who blazed trails on these historic streets so many decades ago.
