No worries, Raph. Prewar racers will welcome all the love it gets from anyone.

Yes, Wheelerguy and Hector Vector are one person. Yes, I am sorry.

I saw the Darracq do “the slide” at one of the early corners, one of the first things I saw there on my two days. It was a pretty incredible experience.

The Napier was one of the few pre war cars I knew since I saw it from Speedhunters, and when I saw it was there I freaked lol.

You lucky devil. Did you see the FIAT?

I’ve had fantasies of building a prewar racer style car. The bedframe-with-an-engine Darracq is one of my biggest inspirations.

The beast of turin? Yeah, not too many flames but I got a look into the “exhaust” when it passed by and I saw fire, so there’s that lol.

The most important part of any machine is whether or not it spits fire.

Well from other runs up the hill on youtube there’s fire, I think it still passes.
