The "Junior Car Club" was a motor racing club which was based at the famous Brooklands circuit and was formed in 1919. After W.W.II. it amalgamated with the "Brooklands Automobile Racing Club". In 1949 the name was changed to the "British Automobile Racing Club" (keeping the same initials). At this point the Goodwood circuit became it's new home (Brooklands had closed at the start of the war).
