Title: Bill Boddy Tribute Day Brooklands 1st October

Brooklands will be staging a tribute on Saturday to William Boddy MBE, the man who began his career writing about the track and later put all his efforts into saving it. He was also a great fan of Lancia. The tremendous Napier aero-engined record holder from 1934, it lapped at some 143 mph, will be demonstrating it's power on the Banking and those arriving in pre 73classics will receive preferential treatment.

The organisers allowed me two runs up the Test Hill, the weather was fantastic
