Remarkable British car speed record by Captain Campbell

A British car driven by Captain Malcolm Campbell set world speed records, achieving a mean speed of 142 at a high rate in both directions. Built at considerable expense, the specially designed Napier-Lion engine car featured advanced engineering, a central fin, and improved aerodynamics. The piece notes racing history, technical details, and the era's push for higher performance.
