A curio! Racing a Land Rover... never the obvious choice. This is Arthur Baker at speed at Silverstone with an enthusiastic Austin Healey driver either trying to go round him or about to spin.. 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.
