No, I don't think that it lost its bodywork in the race.

For one point, please respond and identify this vehicle.

Is this car used for Speedway racing?

No

This looks like a motorcycle meeting, or at least a combined car/bike meeting. I can't understand why no bodywork is thought necessary if it's a speed contest. It's not a Morgan, because there's no sign of sliding-pillar front suspension.

Is this a homebuilt car?

Built for f3 500cc?

All I have is an old newspaper snippet naming the driver and the event where he unsuccessfully tried to start with this vehicle. I wasn't able to find out more so far.

Is it Eric Fernihough?

Three-wheelers were banned from Brooklands from 1924 to 1928- this doesn't look like that track, but is it something to do with this ban?

Right time, right place

Yes, E. C. Terni with his tricycle at Brooklands.

One more point for you.

That's a new one for me. Never knew that. (I MUST buy the "History of Brooklands"!)
