This was the location for the finish of the famous 1903 Southport Speed Trials, one of the first organised speed trials in Great Britain, where after the Official Runs, drivers attempted record breaking runs.
 
The Speed Trials attracted some of the biggest names in early British motor racing, including S. F. Edge in his Napier, J. E. Hutton in a powerful Panhard, G. Higginbottom in a Mercedes, A. Rawlinson in a Paris–Madrid Darracq, and the pioneering Dorothy Levitt, the first female racing driver,  in her 12 hp Gladiator, winning her class.
