EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of the 1908 Tourist Trophy Race held on the Isle of Man. The Calthorpe 4-cylinder racing car in the foreground, with the number 11 displayed prominently on its side, is a testament to the rich history of motorsport. Known as the 'Four Inch Race' due to the maximum size of cylinder bore allowed for entry, this competition attracted some of the most daring and skilled drivers of the era. At the wheel of car number 11 is Leslie Porter, an Irish pioneer racing driver who finished an impressive 4th place in this prestigious event. The determination and focus on Porter's face are evident as he navigates the winding track, surrounded by a sea of spectators in period clothing, eagerly watching the action unfold. The vintage automobile, with its distinctive goggles and overalls, emits a plume of smoke from its engine, adding to the excitement and energy of the scene. The crowd, dressed in their Sunday best, gazes intently at the race, their expressions a mix of awe and anticipation. The track, dotted with trees and rolling hills, winds through the picturesque landscape, providing a challenging yet beautiful backdrop for the race. This sepia-toned photograph, reminiscent of a bygone era, transports us to a time when motoring was a thrilling and daring pursuit, and racing was an exhilarating display of skill and determination. As we take in the details of this image, we are reminded of the rich history and tradition of motorsport and the pioneering spirit of its early drivers. This vintage photograph, a treasure trove of automobilia, is a must-have for any motoring enthusiast or history buff.
