But the farm was not to see much

The two great things he invented
which stand out above all others are

CADILLAC STOCK 3"
LOWERS MILE MARK
Speed Shown in TryOut at At
IantiC Beach Surprises Even
Company Representative.
BY w. D. SHANK.

When Claude Nolan stripped his
Cadillac eight demonstrator this last
week for a tryout at Atlantic Beach,
he little realized that Il would estat.
lish a new worlds record for a mile
made by a regular stock car OF the
eights class. :,
the Southern dealers, a demonstrating
car was tuned up. body taken off and
wire wheels put on and taken to the
beach for a try out. 9. +. Leonard,
chief mechanic at Nolan's, drove the
car.
A mile was carefully measured off
on the beach and stop watches were
used at both ends to set the exact
time. Repeated tests showed that the
car had a most remarkable speed
and the best time made averaged SEA
81 2-5 seconds.
Reply a Surprise.
Mr.. Nolan was so positive that 1t
beat the worlds record. that he i'm
medIately wired the Motor World for
official information regarding tho
best time ever made with such a stock
surprise than was expected. 1t stated
that the official best time ever

hour. This record was made In 1911

would give the Cadillac eight the
distinction of being the fastest stock
car in the world, by being miles
faster per hour than the record made
The record Of %.s2 made by wilcox
was even beaten when two were riding
in the car repeatedly after the first
tests were made, when several of the
dealers took a ride.
Heat Is Recorded.
One OF the most remarkable things
noticed during the run was the action
of the Moto-Meter. which records the
heat of the cur and is attached on
the radiator cap. This was actually
witnessed by the writer who was rid
ing in one of the tests, While the
car was standing still with the motor
running the red liquid in the Moto-
Meter was normal, which indicated
safety in heat. The minute the car
menced TO drop until II was entirely
out of sight, which indicated the mo-
tor extra cool. This sounds almost un-
reasonable on account of the motor
being speeded up to the limit, and IL
ever a car would get hot 1t would GER
tainly do so under those conditions.
The fan was entirely taken on to try
the same occurance happened during
the entire test and after the car had
been run all afternoon at such break
neck speed, the water never boiled IN
