    The Brooklands Double Twelve Motorsport Festival Saturday 16 & Sunday 17 June 2018 COMBINED RESULTS The Brooklands Double Twelve Motorsport Festival 2018 Brooklands Museum, Brooklands Road, Weybridge Surrey KT13 0QN Event promoted by Brooklands Museum Trust Limited (registered charity 296661) In association with the VSCC, Official Competition Organisers. THE BROOKLANDS DOUBLE TWELVE MOTORSPORT FESTIVAL 2018 COMBINED RESULTS Calculating 12/12 Aggregate Scores To be eligible for the competition, a car/driver combination must enter and score a result in two disciplines of the three available. Each of the three available competitions will receive awards as appropriate and as explained in the regulations for each event. Other than Class divisions in each competition, no weighting will be applied to take account of performance variations - this is because: a. Sprint times will be comparatively close (i.e. no competitor is likely to score less than 50% - a score that would represent a time exactly twice that of the fastest in class. b. Concours scores are 80% objective against a fixed marking guide with just 20% available as a subjective score subjective so, again, it is unlikely that any competitor will score less than 50% in total. c. Driving Test scores historically at this event have rarely been below 50% of the Best in Class. More than half score 75% or more. Therefore, in each competition, we can expect the scores for each competitor in each class in each discipline to be between 100% and 75%. Scores from each discipline are carried forward to a separate 12/12 scoreboard as a percentage score within their competition class whereby the best performance in each class in each event will score 100% and all other scores will be diminished on a simple percentage basis.

  • NUFFIELD the Man
    NUFFIELD The Man and NUFFIELD CREST Keeping the Record Straight By Caroline Nixon Introduction The ethos of any “not for profit” organisation owes a lot to the character of its founder, in our case, William Morris, who was later to become Lord Nuffield. Nuffield Australia is very grateful to Caroline Nixon, who has taken the trouble to research the life and work of Lord Nuffield and to summarise it so that Nuffield Scholars may better understand the ethos of our organisation. Nuffield the Man was written over a period of time and the early chapters have been printed in recent Scholars Directories. This booklet is the first publication of the completed text. Caroline has also written the story of our Nuffield crest, a now well-recognised symbol, and this is to be found at the rear of this booklet. Nuffield would not be the great organisation that it is without people being passionate enough about it to look for ways in which they can contribute.

  • The Britain Economy and Marginal Motoring 1915 to 2015
    The Britain Economy and Marginal Motoring 1915 to 2015 Introduction The wealthy portion of the population of Great Britain were no strangers to personal transport, having access to the horse and carriage. With the advent of the motoring era they were quick to convert to this new and expensive form of personal transport, the car. By 1914 the cars purchased by the wealthy Britons were heavy motorcar, some times very heavy. Other less wealthy people who wanted or needed a car for personal transport for business or pleasure turned to the makers of the less expensive but still very expensive light car. This article is about how with some distractions along the way, the ultra light car became more affordable to the general population of Great Britain. Cycle Car era Between the beginning of the twentieth century and the first World War, the first light cars were produced and a need for low cost motor transport was recognised. After 1912 all cars with engines less than 1100cc, were classed as cycle-cars for sporting purposes in Europe. The term Cycle-car was in general usage in Britain to describe all cars with engines with less than four cylinders. The cars with four cylinder engines being classed as light cars. Thing were not that clear cut, there were the true or primitive Cycle-car’s, all chains and belts, the economy light cars with twin cylinder engines, with four cylinder engines, and some makes of economy light car with either twin or four cylinder engines, all under 1100 c.c. The true or primitive cycle-cars made by utilising motor cycle type component, they were produced as a low cost alternative to the light cars of the time and for a period either side of the first World War had a significant impact on the motoring scene but by the middle of the nineteen twenties had virtually disappeared.
