Гонки в Брно (1930-1937)
AleSi:
Hello all,
I´m working on my second motorsport book, this time about Masaryk Circuit in 1930-1937. I have done a lot of research here in Czech republic, as I live in Brno, I´m in contact with our National Tech Museum about their large collection of photos, Audi and Mercedes also provided me with a few pictures. I have a lot of news and reports from local newspapers from that time, browse internet and so on. So I think I have quite a lot materials to write really accurate story.
Anyway, more materials is always better, so thats the reason why I registered here, I think there is a lot of people who might have more materials including photos, so I can get really "clear picture" of some small remaining questions. I would really appreciate any help.
Or if you want to ask me something about Masaryk Circuit from prewar times or after, feel free to ask me, even in russian language, google translator will do the rest :)
Cheers
Ales

OK, let's start.
I've got a lot of question ;)
1934. According to Paul Sheldon Zdeněk Pohl drove a T51 Bugatti, entered by Vladimir Gut. But as far as I know, Pohl owned the T51. (Besides, hi was the Czech Bugatti importer Corrected, thanks to AleSi) . Why Pohl used loaned by V Gut Bugatti instead his own one?
1935. Same source, but Zdeněk Pohl provided the T51 Bugatti for his friend Gut to drive in the GP class. Vice versa :o Maybe it is Sheldon's misconception?
And another one:
Ales, do you know any events, which Bruno Sojka entered (or even started) after Olców hillclimb on 12 June 1938 (till wartime of course)?
AleSi:
Vladimir Gut was Bugatti importer in Prague and in 1934 he offered Pohl two bugattis, with 4,9l engine or 2,3l. Pohl after testing both cars, choosed the smaller one. Pohl´s own bugatti was after late Lobkowicz, so at least two years old.
In 1935 Pohl entered Bugatti in GP and MG in voiturette. It was planned that Zdeněk will drive bugatti and his older brother Jiří will drive MG. But during practices it was decided, that Gut will start in Bugatti and Zdeněk will sit behind the wheel of MG. Reason is unknown to me.
Don´t know if Sojka raced after june 1938. I doubt he raced anywhere after 1. october 1938, where germany took our frontier.

Влад Шайхнуров:
Thanks, Ales for your quick response.
So, I have to compare what you've written and my files.
AleSi:
You are welcome.
I have it from newspapers Lidove Noviny, which I consider as most trustworthy source compare to other newspapers. All articles about Masaryk GP 30-37 in Lidove Noviny was written by respectable local journalist J. M. Janatka.
cheers
