Auto racing fans, writers and historians alike will find this site useful. How is that for short and sweet?

I came across a stunning archive of photos from the Brooklands race track in England. The track opened in 1907, the brainchild of Sir Hugh Fortescue Locke-King and survived until 1939 when World War II forced its closing. If you enjoy historic auto racing photos, you will love this collection.

If you haven't checked out our newest photo gallery, take a look at the collection provided to First Super Speedway by Netherlands auto racing enthusiast Jeroen de Boer. Jeroen has followed Formula One for 30 years and has amassed an impressive collection of photos of early auto racing. I will be dividing these into distinct collections ranging from 1910 through 1919. Great stuff.

I crossed paths with Darren Galpin, a dedicated historian of motor sport several years ago on the Web. Darren has made a tremendous contribution to the collective body of knowledge about pre-World War I auto racing history by assembling a unique, free on-line book about auto racing prior to World War I. If you are interested in this period of auto racing history, this is content you will want explore and bookmark for future reference.
