Three Cars Rejected From Vanderbilt Trials By Cup Commission
The Royal Haynes and Thomas machines that qualified for the Vanderbilt cup elimination were rejected by the cup commission. Only two finishers from the 113 mile run were chosen the 50-horsepower Pope Toledo driven by Bert Dingley and the 80-horsepower Locomobile driven by Joe Tracy. To fill the team three non finishers were added the 90-horsepower Pope Toledo driven by H H Lyttle the 60-horsepower Christie and the White steam racer driven by Walter White. The commission chair noted non finishers would fare better against foreign rivals than three finishers and faced accusations of entry manipulation and club control.
