Dick Protheroe 1922 - 1966
Race meetings
and trophies
This page features the race
meetings and some of the trophies won during the period 1947 to 1966.
As can be seen from other pages on this site he raced various Jaguar XK
120's and "E" types under the registration plates CUT 6 and CUT 7.
Athough he owned CUT 8 "E" type and the car was newly built ready to race he
never competed in that car due to his death at Oulton Park in a Ferrari
in 1966. The race meetings attended included Silverstone, Goodwood,
Snetterton, Aintree and Brands Hatch to name a few and competed in the
Autosport Championship.
