Although I've had a VHS copy of this Fedden Trial movie for some months, we must all thank Pete Hart for actually capturing a digital copy and uploading it to You Tube, albeit broken-up into four clips to get each one under the You Tube 80Mb file size limit. It's actually only a small part of a much longer Bristol Motor Club video which includes movie of hill climbs and rallies in the Bristol area in the late 1930s.
I'll try and identify some of the cars and drivers from the (better quality) VHS copy over time but Pete and I thought we should get these clips posted before the interest generated by the Gloucester Trial video began to die-down. They're worth watching all the way through, although there are a lot of very similar-looking MGs, for some of the shots of the spectators - very evocative of trialling over 70 years ago.
