Winner of Indianapolis Speedway Classic, 1932. Winner of Elgin Stock Car Race, 1933, Holder of twenty-one national and international world's straightaway records. says about The NEW FORD V-8 "I PICKED a Ford V-8 for the 1933 Stock Car Race at Elgin and I thought it was a great car when it brought me home in front. It takes a lot of automo bile to average 80.22 miles an hour for 200 miles over a course like that, "When I heard that the 1934 Ford V-8 was even better than the 1933 job I was just a little doubtful. It just didn't seem possible, but I thought I'd find out. ''I could see it was better-looking, but I wasn't much interested in that. The thing a racing driver looks at is the engine. How does it sound? How is it built? How fast will it go? How does it stack-up on gas and oil? "So I took it out on the road and opened it up. It held the road like a veteran and the way that speed ometer touched the top numbers was something to talk about. If I'd had that car in the Elgin race I'd have averaged closer to 90 than 80. ' . "You can put me down as saying this New Ford V-8 is going to go places in 19,34. "It's a sweet job all the way through and that new dual carburetion system is going to save you a lot of money on gasoline."
