Capturing the Thrill of Speed - Maj. A. T. G. Gardner's MG C-Type Midget in the RAC TT Race, 1932
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print from the 1930s, we witness a moment frozen in time at the Ards Circuit in Belfast. The legendary racing driver, Maj. A. T. G. Gardner, known as Goldie Gardner, fearlessly takes on the challenging track behind the wheel of his iconic MG C-Type Midget (746S cc). The atmosphere is electric as spectators line both sides of the avenue, eagerly awaiting a glimpse of this classic car tearing through their city streets with unparalleled speed and precision. Bill Brunell expertly captures this historic event with his monochrome lens, immortalizing not only Gardner's daring drive but also an era defined by passion for motor racing. However, fate had other plans that day as tragedy struck when Gardner crashed during the race. Despite this setback, his spirit remained unbroken and he continued to make significant contributions to British motorsport throughout his career. This photograph serves as a testament to both Gardner's indomitable spirit and the enduring allure of vintage cars and motor racing from a bygone era. Preserved within its frame are memories of a time when speed was king and drivers like Goldie Gardner pushed themselves beyond limits on treacherous circuits like Ards. Now housed in the National Motor Museum archives, this image stands as a reminder of our rich automotive heritage and pays homage
