hddennis Posted July 31, 2013 Author Share Posted July 31, 2013 Dave, Maxwell did the same thing that manufacturers do today they created engines for the track that had no resemblance to their showroom product whatsoever. They varied so much that the first version didn't even run on gasoline it used kerosene. Howard Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
