Could anyone suggest which car this might be, and the date & location of the accident?

Thank you in anticipation.

A quick look in Karl Wiessmann's The Hawke History of MMM Competition Cars shows this to be RA0253 at the JCC International Trophy race at Brooklands on 2 May 1936, driven by Doreen Evans. A well known incident.

Thank you.

What about this one - another Evan's car?

Cheers

Here is another view of the incident that precisely locates the position of the car. (LAT archive)
