AN eye-witness account of one of the biggest road races is bound to attract listeners, whether they have any active interest in motor road-racing or not. The race is held over a genuine road circuit with all kinds of natural hazards; it is for standard sports cars in touring trim, and the road circuit is of about thirteen miles, the full distance of the race being four hundred miles. Seventy-five cars were entered, representing six nations. The eye-witness account will be given by Mr. S. C. H. Davis , of The Auto-Car, who is himself driving in the race. In order to give the talk, he will fly over to Glasgow from Belfast in a specially chartered aeroplane.
