MS Trophy goes to Gillett

July 7, 2014

Charles Gillett has won the 2007 Motor Sport Brooklands Trophy for his performances at VSCC race meetings last year. The award, conceived by Bill Boddy in 1950 to commemorate racing at Brooklands, recognises achievements in pre-1940 cars.

Gillett had an excellent season in his 1929 Frazer Nash Super Sport, and collected the award and a cheque for £560 during the Race Retro exhibition at Stoneleigh. Tony Seber was runner-up in his 1935 Wolseley Hornet Special, ahead of Jonathon Cobb and his Frazer Nash Super Sports.

Paul Lawrence

Here is a man who goes racing every weekend from March to October. Paul’s passion for the sport goes back to when he was a child of the 1960s. He has organised, competed in and marshalled on scores of events, and has written about the subject for 20 years. He is as at home in the paddock at Brands Hatch as in a Welsh forest or at Shelsley Walsh.
