BCYLINDERAUTD SPEEDISTINRACE The ninth annual international sweepstakes race at Indianapolis was/! a triumph for eight-cylinder cars for the fiest ttme In the history of the fa- mous 500-mi1d classic. . 4 When Tommy Milton sent the'eight- cylindered Frontenac creation of Louls Chevrolet across tife finish for a new track average for cars of 183 cubic inches piston displacement it was the rét time that an eight-cylinder car ad ever won at the famous speed- way, and the second time that any car of more than four cylinders had ever received the checkered flag. “Fours” Have Been Victors. Except for the first race In 1911, when Ray Harroun drove to victory in- a six-cylinder Marmon, the great con- test always has been won by cars of four-cylinder design. | This year was a complete triumjh for “eights” but ones four—Percy Ford's Frontenac—being placed, while the other eight positions yere taken By eight-cylinder speedsters. In both speed and stamina “eights” were su- |preme. Ralph de Palma's Goodyear- equipped Ballot had the speed of any car on the track, as was shown by the unheard-of average, speed of 9333 miles an_hour he maintained for 250 miles until he was forced out, while Tommy- Milton's “eight” had -the stamina—and won.

Foreign ‘designers. with the excep- tion of Ballot in France. favor the four-cylinder car as easier of adjust- ment and maintenance at eficiency |. during a race, but the battle for au- i premacy will be fought to a conclu- sion at the grand prix at Le Mans in} July; when American-designed “elsh!l"l and Wil lock horns with European-de- signed “fours.” The result of this race will have con- derable influence on future designs f racing cars, and will determine vhether they are to be “fours” “eights.” !
