as larger-capacity cars become more common, 500 cc racing began to decline, but the formula still gave close, exciting racing. the first year that public car race meeting were organised by other than the brscc was 1956 – in june, the 750 motor club joined forces with the club lotus to offer a mixture of races, including, for the first time at brands, saloon cars. this was also the year the brands grew up, running formula one cars for the first time on 14 october. initially, a long-distance race was planned, but in the end a 15-lap race was run which attracted four work entries from connaught (b-types for archie scott brown, les leston, jack fairman and stuart lewis-evans) opposed by privately entered maserati 250fs driven by roy salvadori and bruce halford and a selection of independents. archie won from lewis-evans, with salvadori setting a new lap record in the process at a speed of 75.66 mph. politics caused the cancellation of the boxing day meeting that year due to the suez crisis.
