When George Bailey wheels one of Harry Millet’s motor-in-the-rear cars through a turn he says it
handles as easily as if it were running on rails. This has impressed other drivers at the Speedway, who
were skeptical at first about these unusual racing machines.
By TOM OCHILTREE The boys who have been watching George Bailey practice for the 500-mile race—and it's hard to miss seeing him because he already has turned more miles than a Pullman car—were speaking todav of Harry Miller's motor creations with more respect When these unorthodox autos first made their appearance at the Speedway someone began whistling “A Bicycle Built for Two,” and the name stuck for a while These drivers

George Bailev (above) has turned so many practice laps in the three rear-motor Millers that the other bovs are betting he will find himself at the track if he ever starts walking in his sleep.
Bailey has been turning laps regularly at 123 miles an hour and has gone up high as 125 miles an hour. Once when he was running a fast one he found another driver in one of the turns and had to take his own car well up on the bank and out of the groove. “I didnt know how it was going to act up high, but it felt as smooth as going for a buggy ride, and that is going to be important in race day traffic.” he declared
