Brooklands Test Hill

English: Test Hill was part of the historic Brooklands motorsport complex, and is now within the grounds of Brooklands Museum. It was built in 1909 shortly after the circuit opened. It was located next to the Finishing Straight, aligned SWS-NNE, rising up the natural ridge in the northerly direction. It is 352 feet long from the bottom 51.354427°N 0.463051°W / 51.354427; -0.463051 to the top 51.355375°N 0.462434°W / 51.355375; -0.462434, and comprises three sections of increasing gradient, 1 in 8 at the bottom, then 1 in 5 and finally 1 in 4 at the top. It was intended to be used to test climbing capability and brakes, but also quickly became a race venue in itself, with cars and bikes vying set fastest climb records, eventually becoming airborne at the top.
