Every Mark From 75 to 250
rvilies 15 ornasneu in opeeu-
" way Tournaments
The feat of Earl Cooper., and
Frank Elliott in breaking every
world record from 75 to 2 50
miles at Culver City, Cal., speed
way, Nov. 29, climaxed what la
generally agreed has been the
greatest year automobile racing
has ever known, says R. A. Stran
ahan, president of the Champion
Spark Plug Company. New world
speedway records were hung up
' daring the year for every distance
from 1 1-4 miles to 600. The
marks for pome of these distances
were broken several times as the
little 122-cubic inch cars whirled
their way around the country's
various speedways.
Elliott was compelled to aver-4
age - tne tremendous speed ot
12.7 87 miles an hour for 2 50
miles to win this last 1925 race
Had' Cooper's gasoline been suf
ficient to carry him the entire
distance, he and not Elliot would
have, won. and in still aster time.
.Six new world records are now
on Uhe. books - of this Cnlver .City
race. 'Cooper himself , set flve'of
tnem. His qualifying time for one
lap, made . two days before, the
ra'ee started, was at the'1 rate of
111.5 -miles-an hour. His 'speed
tor. the ffrst 75 miles wss 132.6
-miles an. hour; if or 100 miles
131.S; for 150 miles 130.7 and
for 200 . miles 129.5 miles an hour '
-all of them new world' marks.
Fifteen laps before the finish.-
with less . than 20 miles to -go
Cooper's gasoline tank, ran dry.
So closely was ne pursued that his
slowing, down for more" f nel cost
him tour places. But his mis
fortune acted as a tonic to Elliott,
who whirled around the track
fast enough to - wind up a mile
ahead of Harry Hartz, in second
place. , :
The Culver City race also ended
the greatest year in the . racing
field ever enjoyed by a manufac
turer, for Champion spark plugs
were used in every winning car
in every, major ,race the world
over, with a single exception.
Cars equipped with, them, in ad
dition to setting up every one ot
the score or mote, of . new world
records, went through every race
without change-a , performance
undreamed of "even" three years
ago. .In practically every race,
every car to f inlsn was Champion
equipped, according to Mr. fitran
ahan. ; .
- ObseTvers at the Culver City
track say that tie race's two out
standing features were the 'anili
ty of the supercnargers to deliver
higher continuous speeds jftian
tvere evir made before, and, the
ability of the ipark plugs, pistons
and crankshafts to withstand the
terriflc punishment they received
because ( of these , new speeds.
Supercnargers, previously able to
dediyer. gas mixture to the cylin
ders" at " four" pounds pressure,
were geared np to 'make "delfvery
pp . to; twelVe - pounds, and per
formed rltb. remarkable efffcleny
