Land Rover Series 1, Arthur Baker, Silverstone 3 July 1954

A curio! Racing a Land Rover... never the obvious choice. This is Arthur Baker at speed at Silverstone with a passenger (high speed trail maybe?) . Sadly Baker rolled the Land Rover  in practice for the 6 hour relay race in August 54 (a race he won in the wet in 1953)  and was killed. I think Land Rovers MAY have been banned from circuit racing there after, although I have no evidence of that.
