Peter & Clive Morley

I took this photograph at Hislop's chicane during the Boulogne Trophy race at the Vintage Sports Car Club's meeting at Oulton Park in June 2008.

Leading is Clive Morley in a 1928 Bentley 4½ litre with his father Peter behind in a 1929 Bentley 3/4½ litre - a 3 litre chassis with a 4½ litre engine.

VSCC Racing at Oulton Park 1984

I took this photograph during a handicap race at the Vintage Sports Car Club's Richard Seaman Memorial Trophies meeting at Oulton Park in June 1984.

The Shell Oils Corner loop wasn't used at this meeting, the cars doubling back at Island Bend, and the photograph was taken just after that on the run up Hilltop towards Knickerbrook. The programme of the event shows number 46 as the 1,089cc 1926/38 Austin Fiat of R J Campbell and he's being followed by the 4½ litre 1938/9 Lagonda V12 of A W Barker. There were four Bentleys in the race and the third car appears to be the 4,398cc 1924/6 Bentley 3/4¼ litre of S Llewellyn.

1928 Bentley 3/4½ litre

This car competed in the Pre-War Team Challenge race at the Aston Martin Owners Club's meeting at Oulton Park in May 2017.

It's Clive Morley's 1928 3/4½ litre Bentley, a 3 litre chassis with a 4½ litre (actually 4,398cc) engine.

Here's Clive Morley at Druids Corner during the morning qualifying session.....

.....and at the Britten's chicane during the race. The car behind him is Richard Iliffe's 1934 Riley Kestrel Sports.

Bentleys

Any meeting organised by the Vintage Sports Car Club is always going to attract a good number of Bentleys, and the SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in June 2008 was no exception.

The car nearest the camera is the 1929 Bentley 4½ litre Le Mans driven in Sunday's hour-long Motor Racing Legends Pre-war Sports Cars race by Stanley Mann and Michael Rudnig. The red car next to that is possibly the 1927 supercharged Bentley 3 litre driven by Joe and Rachel Singer in the same race. The silver car looks like the 1927 Bentley 3/8 litre of Adam Singer that he shared with Stanley Mann in Saturday's 2 hour-long VSCC White House Memorial Pre-war Sports Car Team Relay Race. On 9 August 2017 I showed a photograph of this car at Donington Park in 2006. The next car appears to have three racing numbers and seems to be the 1928 Bentley 3/4½ litre Le Mans driven in the Relay Race by Joseph Singer as number 171 and Stuart Fearnside as number 172. It may also be the car shared by Adam Singer and Stuart Fearnside in Sunday's hour-long race - that was number 14, but is shown in the programme of the event as a 1927 car, not 1928. The racing number on the last car appears to be a 21, and if so it's the 1929 supercharged Bentley 4½ litre of Martin Overington that he drove in the Sunday hour-long race.
