This print by Chris McEvoy showcases the CJ12 1031 Austin 7 racer, a true icon of British automotive history. The Austin 7, first introduced in July 1922, was not only promoted as an affordable family car but also boasted an official horsepower of 7, placing it in a low tax category during that time. However, through clever engineering and innovation, this little powerhouse soon exceeded expectations with its actual power reaching an impressive 10.5hp from its four-cylinder engine. The image captures the essence of speed and nostalgia as the Austin 7 racer takes on the Goodwood Motor Circuit during the Centenary Celebration in September 2022. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Chichester's West Sussex countryside, this classic racing car embodies heritage and historic charm. As part of the Goodwood Revival event, where motor sport enthusiasts gather to celebrate iconic cars and relish in their glorious pasts, this photograph perfectly encapsulates the excitement and thrill that fills the air during such competitions. With its retro design and timeless appeal, it is no wonder why these vintage vehicles continue to captivate both young and old alike. Chris McEvoy's skillful photography transports us back to a bygone era when circuit racing was at its peak. This print serves as a testament to our enduring love affair with classic cars while paying homage to their significant contribution to motor sports history.
