  • This is the second video from Brooklands Double 12 event and is all about the famous Test Hill at Brooklands Museum. To start with we watch some owners trying to get up the hill, both in modern and older cars. Later we get the chance to ride with some of them and even drive up it ourselves. The last part shows in some detail, 11F Brooklands Squadron ATC cadets draging a car to the top. A feat in which they smashed the existing record with a time of 2mins 17secs.

      Yes it is so easy to criticise the young today, but when you see that determination, it is a little reassuring

      Its a challenge! I wasn't in that group but I was part of a cadet group pulling that car up the hill! In fact I am friends with 4 of the cadets in the video :)

    Good to see the old stuff getting a workout. Guy in the MGA needs to tell the old girl not to hang her hand bag on the choke knob! ;-)

    1:45 Subaru 2.5 engine? Sounds pretty damn close.

    I love the video. Two things though. One, when the A made its first attempt at it and failed I was like WTBH (what the bloody hell), how does a MGA fail getting up this hill!? Seriously they failed. Also who's the knob who brought his Sinclair C5? Who on earth would bring a Sinclair C5 to a 1 in 8 to 1 in 4 hill?

    good strength test for the cadets, to get them out of flabby shape, like most youngsters today.

    This hill must be steeper than it looks

    • @AndysVideo

      As someone who has walked up it, I can tell you it is, but that is the idea. It starts with a gradient of 1 in 8, and that increases to a gradient of 1 in 4 at the top. It was used by manufacturers to test car's ability to climb a hill and braking efficiency.

    Think that i just saw a Danish Hawker Hunter at port side of the track !

    • @AndysVideo

      Yes you did. it was one of around 30 that were exported to the Royal Danish Air Force. and was operational from 1956 to 1973. It was used from 1982 as a training air frame at Brooklands Technical College and in 1989 it was loaned to the Museum. Here is a link to the video I made of us recovering it. ruclips.net/video/gZM_70btX2g/видео.html Cheers Andy
