1957 UAA Tourist Trophy

I'm Don Wilbourn welcoming you to the 26th edition of the UAA Tourist Trophy live from Strathcona Park in Grahamshire. The Tourist Trophy is true test of man and machine. You are going to need stamina, good brakes and a powerful and reliable engine if you want to win the Tourist Trophy.

Austin have introduced a new car, the A55 Cambridge which can churn out 51hp. Can it avoid the wooden spoon?

The flag drops and we are away! The high-powered Lincolns and Packards lead the pack!

Paul Hildebrand gets a broken clutch on lap 4.

Trevor Moray suffers an engine failure on lap 6.

Haywood Jenkins has a magneto failure on lap 9.

Robert Hewley loses his engine on lap 15.
