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."
