In those glorious motoring years between the two world wars, the right crowd thrilled to the exploits of racing drivers round the Brooklands saucer. And few quite captured the public imagination as those who drove the behemoths powered by engines originally intended for aircraft. The fastest racing cars of their time, they steadily upped the lap record to the 143.44mph at which John Cobb finally left it. As I computed for our October 1992 feature on the quiet record breaker, that would be the equivalent today of a 276mph lap at Indianapolis. Illustrated by: .
