This car competed in the HSCC Seldon Pre '71 Single Seater Championship race at the Historic Sports Car Club's Spring Historic Race Meeting at Oulton Park in May 1987 and is seen here at Lodge Corner during the race.
It's the 1969 Brabham BT30 of Andrew Fellowes, chassis BT30/8, with what the programme of the event says was a 1,598cc engine. The BT30 was built as a Formula 2 car when the capacity limit was set at 1,600cc and was usually powered by a 4-cylinder inline 1,599cc Ford Cosworth engine. It was originally bought by the Irish Racing Cars team of Mick Mooney where it was driven by Tommy Reid.
