bioghist: label: Biographical / Historical
content: Alexander Winton was a builder and driver of early racing cars.  His third racing car, called the "Bullet No. 2", was one of the first automobiles to use an 8-cylinder, in-line engine.  Winton and Harold B. Anderson, chief engineer of Winton Motor Carriage Company, built this automobile for the fourth Gordon Bennett road race, held in Ireland in 1903.  The car was forced
out of the race due to mechanical problems.  A good account of the automobile, which is in the Smithsonian's transportation collections, can be seen in Donald H. Berkebile and Smith Hempstone Oliver's book, The Smithsonian Collection of Automobiles and Motorcycles, City of Washington: Smithsonian Institution Press, 1968.
