Only one other, car was left on it's own but in a barriered-off paddock, so didn't want to intrude

Vincent Black Lightening. I had a couple of Rapides and a Comet. They were quite a nice ride and fast in their day.

Am America. Got a Lightning up to 150mph on Bonneville Salt Flats by lying on it on his stomach in only a bathing suit. Can’t see Louis Hamilton doing it myself.

Sorry for link but it won’t let me post the image

Later on someone in New Zealand managed 185mph.

Tony Smallbone’s Austin 1824. Fabulous pre WW1 car owned by a family who’ve been motor traders in Selly Oak Birmingham since 1929

Amazing thing to do, chap must have been rather eccentric. You only had to hit the right bump for a frightful steering wobble. A friend broke his back when it happened to him.
