This was one of the competitors in the Richard Seaman Memorial Vintage Trophy race at the Vintage Sports Car Club's meeting at Oulton Park in June 1981.
It's Adrian Liddell at Lodge Corner in his 1918 Straker Squire which has a 6-cylinder inline 3,921cc engine and was raced at Brooklands by Bertie Kensington Moir. A note in the programme says this about the car:
'There is absolutely no excuse (presuming it starts, of course) for not noticing Adrian Liddel's 1918 Straker Squire, for this ex-Brooklands car has been painted with black and white dazzle paint, such as it wore at Brooklands, surely supplied to Adrian by the same firm which made the blue and green Gordon tartan paint applied to the Arrol-Johnston cars which took part in the 1912 Coupe de l'Auto race at Dieppe.'
