than the present day Chevrolet mo-
tor, and the one used by Frank
Lockhart at Indianapolis recently
was only about one-half as large.
Yet this same Chevrolet motor is of
the valve-in-head type like its pro-
totype of PhoeoniX road race days:
its speed is about one-quarter or
one-sixth as great and the wear
and tear is thereby reduced in geo
metrical proportion.
Almost Exceed Safety Margin
Like the racing car strength,
power and sturdiness of construc-
tion have been combined to with
stand hard service, but the Chevro-
let has avoided the faults of super
light construction where the mar
gin of safety has almost been ex-
ceeding in the racing car in the
overwhelming desire for supreme
speed. This is noticeable in the
use of aluminium alloy pistons in
the racing mounts, where they
have caused great deal of trouble,
but have been endured on account
of the terrific speed at which rae
ing engines turn over. Chevrolet
engineers decided upon cast iron
pistons after exhaustive tests, and
they cut them down by eight ozs.
over last years pistons to save vi
bration and wear and tear.
They used motors two and three
times as large as we use today in
the old Phoenix road race, yet the
cars we build today and use on the
highways have more power, they
are sturdier and stand up under
hard service such as the race cars
of older days had to stand in better
shape, because they are built of
better steels and they are built by
engineers who have had the bene-
fit of the experience of Louis Chew
rolet, Teddy Tetzlaff, Barney Old
field, Harris Hanshue, Beaudet,
Carlson and the rest in their racing
contests where anything that was

OLD DESERT CLASSIC
ROUGH TEST OF CAR

Harry Weller and the Duesen-

for supremacy on track and speed
way, with Miller having a slight
edge because of a larger number
of racing cars in service. Today
the racing game is not like it was
when the Pope, the LoZier, Simplex
Apperson, and a score of others
now merely memory in the auto
mobile industry-were jockeying
for leadership and thrilling tens of
thousands at every road and track
race from Sheepshead Bay to Los
Angeles, and from Atlanta to Ia
coma.
An old clipping from the racing
files came to light few days ago.
There was no date, and not even
the name of the newspaper in
which it appeared, but it told of the
cars in transit on the Los Angeles
to Phoenix road race of nearly a
score of years ago.
