Brooklands 2013 - Hill Run Thread

[dombooth]

Okie dokie.

We need 6 cars to go up the famous Test Hill.

A description of the Test Hill from the museum website:

Test Hill was built in 1909 as another facility to encourage use of the track for development and test work. It is 352 feet long and divided into three sections, starting with a gradient of 1 in 8, then 1 in 5 and the top third has a gradient of 1 in 4. It was used by manufacturers to test both the ability of cars to climb steep hills and also of their brakes to stop them coming down.

If you want a chance to drive up the hill copy and paste the last post and add your forum name and the car you'd be taking up the hill, to the bottom.

We (Forum Moderators and Events Team) will then choose the 6 cars we think would be the best to represent the forum.

Entries are accepted until 10:30am Monday 29th, any entries after that time will NOT be accepted.

PLEASE ONLY PUT YOUR NAME DOWN FOR THIS IF YOU ARE 100% ATTENDING THIS EVENT.
