Information | The Brooke Riley was for time a two seat sports car using a modified tt six chassis with a Andre Girling Independent-Front-Suspension system that was supplied to Leslie Brooke by his friend Freddie Dixon and I have been told that the chassis and engine were raced at the 1936 British Empire Trophy race by a chap called Von der Becke? The engine was a modified 1750 cc Dixon Riley using 6 x carbs. which are missing so will have to be remade and I am waiting for more info on the carbs as Mark Gillies says that they were two sets of triple SU's and he is checking with someone . |
