The 1936 Australian Tourist Trophy was a motor race staged at the Phillip Island circuit in Victoria, Australia on 30 March 1936.[1]
The race was held over 60 laps of the new 3.312 mile "triangular circuit", a total distance of 200 miles.[1]
It was open to factory built and catalogued racing cars and sports cars, irrespective of engine capacity.[2]
The race, which was organised by the Australian Racing Drivers Club, was contested on a handicap basis[2] with the 'Limit' starter, HR Reeves (MG P-type), given a 38-minute start on the 'Scratch' starter, J McCutcheon (Day Special).[3]
The race was won by JH Fagan[1] driving an MG K3 Magnette.[4]
Of the sixteen starters only six finished and of those, only two were officially placed as the other four failed to complete the course within the prescribed time limit,[4] which had been set at 15 minutes after the winner completed the race.[5]
