EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from The Northcliffe Collection, we are transported back to the thrilling world of racing in 1963. At Usworth Aerodrome, two iconic machines take center stage - a Tiger Moth aircraft and a Lotus Ford 23B. Flying instructor Newby Tate fearlessly takes control of the vintage Tiger Moth aircraft, while racing driver Julian Sutton confidently sits behind the wheel of the powerful Lotus Ford 23B. What brings these two remarkable individuals together on this historic day? A bet. With adrenaline coursing through their veins, both men push their respective vehicles to their limits as they compete against each other on the vast aerodrome grounds. The roaring engines create an exhilarating symphony that echoes through time. As spectators watch with bated breath, it becomes evident that speed is not limited to just one realm. Despite its graceful flight capabilities, the Tiger Moth succumbs to the sheer power and agility of Sutton's Lotus Ford 23B. This photograph encapsulates a moment frozen in time - a nostalgic glimpse into an era where planes ruled the skies and cars dominated racetracks. It serves as a reminder of our fascination with speed and our relentless pursuit for victory. The Northcliffe Collection has once again captured history unfolding before our eyes; allowing us to relish in past triumphs and appreciate how far we have come since those golden days of aviation and motor racing excellence.
