Wheeled racing craft have been improved so much aince last season that without a doubt ‘ * few marks will be made, The speod Tue "Geassopree’ pesian will amaze the onlookers. Yet we OF Lact Year, are only half way in the develop- ment of the racing motor car. The freakish machines of to-day, with their queer bodies, will scem even ue mee cin ea more freakish a few years from now, ge CUP Das and the (two-miles-a-minute that OnIG ISLAND Present day racers hope for will be an ordinary jog when the automobile has reached its limit. The smaller racing cars of to-day, with their limited piston area, are faster than the giant racers of a few years ago, Mechanical refinement and improvement in body design have made a world of difference. Men haven't changed. Resta, Mulford, Lewis, Aiken, Bergdoll, Franchi, Hen- derson and the rest are no more dar- ing than the fellows who drove the first rattling junk heaps that trav- elled sixty miles an hour. If any- thing, the old drivers were the more pal | for they drove machines that were likely to crack under the strain over rough roads and around hairpin turns.
