This print by Chris McEvoy showcases the CJ12 1035 Austin 7 racer, a true icon of British automotive history. The Austin 7, first introduced in July 1922, was hailed as an affordable family car with its official horsepower designation of 7. This allowed it to fall into a low tax category, thanks to the prevailing Horsepower tax method at that time. However, through ingenious engineering advancements within just a few years, this little powerhouse's actual power output from its four-cylinder engine reached an impressive 10.5hp. It is no wonder that the Austin 7 became synonymous with speed and exhilaration on the racetrack. The photograph captures this historic moment during the Centenary Celebration at Goodwood Revival in September 2022. Set against the backdrop of Goodwood Motor Circuit in Chichester, West Sussex, England, this image exudes nostalgia and heritage. With its classic design and unmistakable retro charm, the CJ12 1035 Austin 7 racer stands as a testament to British craftsmanship and innovation in motor racing. As spectators gather around to witness these iconic cars compete on the circuit, they are transported back in time to an era when motor sport was pure entertainment and excitement. Chris McEvoy's photography skillfully immortalizes this significant piece of automotive history while evoking feelings of awe and admiration for these remarkable vehicles.
