engines of this size.

The history of the SOO-mile

from an engineering standpoint, is reflected in the stock car which the owner drives in the conduct of his business and in the pursuit of recreation. Back in 1911, when the r>00-mile race was born, the engines were almost “square,” which is to say that the bore was almost the same as the stroke. The 1911 and the 1912 races were for engines of 600 cubic inches or less, which developed less power and speed than the engines of 1923 and 1924, consumed many times the gasoline and lubricating oil and were bulky and heavy pieces of machinery. In the year 1913 the displacement wa^ reduced 25 per cent to 450 cubic inches or less, which maintained until 1915, when it w 3 reduced one third, to a miximum of 800 cubic inches, which was not reduced until after the War, the 300 class racing in 1915, 1916 and 1919. In 1920, 1921 and 1922 the maximum was 183 cubic Inches and in 1923 wa reduced to the present 122 cubic

inches.
