French driver Caillois avoids bets in Vanderbilt Cup eliminations
Gustave Caillois says he does not want to start first in the American team elimination trial for the Vanderbilt Cup. He would prefer a fourth or fifth place to protect the Thomas car from top speed strain. He warns friends not to wager on his victory and notes he may push ahead only if he averages 58 to 60 mph and lags early. The final race remains the true test.
