One of the strangest racing accidents of all time. Major Peter Braid's Cooper on the roof of the Guardhouse at Blandford Army base, after being launched by the base of the demolished bus shelter and bouncing off the trees! Peter Braid fell out but was only bruised and shaken. Still racing are the Bardon Special of Don Truman, the Iota of Joe Fry and another Cooper. Sadly, Major Braid was killed in a railway accident in 1955.
