Our 1998 Reunion saw the Napier Railton, which we recently helped to purchase for the museum, as the centrepiece of a display of Napiers, Railtons and other Brooklands cars. John Cobb's mighty 1933, 168 mph, 24 litre Napier aero-engined, Reid Railton designed car, holds the Brooklands Track outer circuit lap record at 143.44 mph in perpetuity - or at least until we can completely rebuild the track again give time and history yet to be written. Read about the Napier Railton and view the original 1930s photographs elsewhere on this web site:
