Editing Archie Scott Brown (section)

== Death ==

Scott Brown was mortally injured on 18 May 1958 during an accident in a [[sports car racing|sports car race]] at [[Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps|Spa-Francorchamps]], driving a [[Lister Knobbly]] and duelling for the lead with Masten Gregory driving the Ecurie Ecosse Lister Jaguar. Battling hard with Gregory, they swapped the lead between them inches apart. The competition was so fierce that Scott Brown dented his car's nose on the rear of the Ecosse car on lap three. With Scott Brown leading on lap six, they arrived at Blanchimont, then in the Clubhouse bend (where [[Richard Seaman]] had died in 1939), to find the track slick with rain; the right-hand front wheel of the Lister hit a road sign, snapping the track rod and causing a disastrous accident. Scott Brown died in hospital (Heusy) the following day, less than a week after his 31st birthday.
