Hi Boniver,
Well, you asked! I'm actually in the throes of a book of Brooklands history, trying to present each race, its results, runners and riders. Not the easiest of things to research, believe me.
In the process, I have established squatters rights in the Beaulieu National Motor Museum library, lost my temper at the microfiche custodians at the British Newspaper Library, exchanged views with the great William Boddy, rummaged around in the Brooklands Society archive, and found myself on first name terms with every antiquarian motor book dealer in the land.
And I'm still left with gaps all over the place!
So, Boniver, what would you like to know about Brooklands?
Incidentally, the first meeting at Brooklands was actually on July 6th 1907, and the first race therein was won by HC Tryon on a 40hp Napier.
The last race ever held at the track was The Third August Outer Circuit Handicap, on August 7th 1939, The winning car was GL Baker's Straight-8 Graham-Paige.
