My ambition for a good while is to grow old disgracefully. So far my wife tells me that I am doing really well!

The "face" is an homage to the 1921 Fafnir team cars, which featured distinctive ‘faces’ on their radiator cowls and a clown’s hat radiator cap. Colin

The "face" is an homage to the 1921 Fafnir team cars, which featured distinctive ‘faces’ on their radiator cowls and a clown’s hat radiator cap. The event was the annual Kop Hill climb and they generally have a couple of these monsters at each event. Only 100 HP from a 10 liter? I'd bet the torque had to be much higher?
