Anyone here remember this event?
The B20 at the front is I believe TPL 7 a 3rd series being driven by Anthony Crook, later of Bristol Cars.
The event was the Daily Express International Trophy at Silverstone on 7th May 1954 before the British Grand Prix.
I spoke to Anthony Crook not long before he died as his garage at Leatherhead had sold my B20 to my father in 1960.
He explained that the Silverstone event had been a fiasco for him. He was contracted to use Dunlop tyres at the time and despite protests
he had to use them and spun wildly and the car was damaged.
There several different photos of TPL 7 at this event.
My father took some photos of TPL 7 around 1960 in Surrey, possibly at a garage near New Addington.
Since then no trace, although I was led to believe it was still around in 2010, but the lead went dead.
Anyone know more?
