There was a fair bit of argument as to whether or not this car came to Australia. If I recall correctly the engine was allegedly found on a SA farm where it had been used to drive a wheat thresher.

Obviously the RAC TT race is great because of the Cobra involvement, but every single race is worth watching.
I hadn't seen the Fiat video before, showing it running 134mph a century ago. It must have seemed like a UFO back then, with it's size, sound and fury...
