Between 1910 and 1925 Kop Hill was a popular hill climbfor famous names in motor racing. At that time the road was unmetalled. The hill climb was first revived in 1999 and has again been run this year. It is hoped that it will be run again next year on the centenary of its first run. Here one car has just set off with another waiting at the start line. http://www.kophillclimb.org.uk/
