  • Legendary Cars on Display at the IMRRC During Vintage Grand Prix Weekend in Watkins Glen Sept. 6-9, 2018
    "Poison Lil" on display at the IMRRC. The Maserati V8RI Built in 1936 led the first competitive lap at Watkins Glen in the 1948 "Junior Prix". Photo: Andrew Zieter Legendary Cars on Display at the IMRRC during Vintage Grand Prix Weekend in Watkins Glen Sept. 6-9, 2018 WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. (Aug. 29, 2018) - The International Motor Racing Research Center has two rare and historically significant race cars on exhibit starting in early September. The cars will be on display to coincide with the dates of the 2018 Grand Prix Festival taking place on Friday, Sept. 7, and the weekend-long Hilliard United States Vintage Grand Prix at Watkins Glen International. The cars can be seen at the IMRRC Visitors Center at 610 S. Decatur Street in Downtown Watkins Glen. Exhibit hours are 9 a.m.-5 p.m. daily with extended event hours on Friday Sept. 7, when the Center will be open until 9 p.m. Both cars have long and storied careers that directly relate to the history of racing in Watkins Glen. "Poison Lil," built in 1936, is one of four Maserati V8RIs made. Originally designed by Ernesto Maserati, the V8RI was intended to compete with the German race cars of the time. After limited success in the European Grand Prix circuit, all four Maseratis went on to race in other venues over the next few decades. The 1952 OSCA MT4, which will temporarily leave the Center to participate in Friday downtown festival events, is also a product of the Maserati family. O.S.C.A.

  • Sanctioning Bodies
    Sanctioning Bodies Tyrants used to love American automobile racing and so did demagogues, idealists, fat cats, laissez-faire capitalists, doomsayers, and saviors. Making matters worse, back in the 20th century such dangerous creatures were famous for banding together for mass hallucinations and the free exchange of fancy. Terrible things happened to racing whenever they did. They had it pretty good, did those racers of the early 20th century, who were free to race as they wished, without sanctioning bodies ordering them around. But by the 1920s racing was in crisis. The contest board of the powerful American Automobile Association, most feared and probably worst of all sanctioning bodies, had steered racing to the brink of a precipice. Its over-developed Millers and Duesenbergs tended to run flawlessly or blow up from the stress, and, in either case, were traveling much too fast for sanity and safety on the bricked surface of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, to say nothing of the AAA’s tournament of even faster board tracks. Operating costs were out of control, and a clique egotistical fat cat racing car owners had matters firmly under their thumb. And although the stated purpose of the Indy 500 was to further development the automobile, the only piece of advanced technology to spew forth from the Hoosier laboratory of speed had been the rear-view mirror. The Great Depression of the 1930 ameliorated a lot of this, cutting the speeds and putting an end to the supercharged Millers and Duesenbergs, wiping out the fat cats, bankrupting all the looming lumber bowls, and almost doing the same thing to the Indy 500.

    JADSON became a big maker of fine engine parts and moved to their huge plant in Bell, and sold-out to Thompson Products in the 1930s. They had come a long ways from bending iron to make the chassis of a work wagon. Actually just enough iron to hang on the front axle and support the rear wheels. Heating and bending iron takes some finesse to understand how the heat affects the work piece and how best to retain the strength of the steel while heating it to weaken it for shaping. It’s blacksmithing. The one-piece engine valve was an innovation in shaping the head of a rod into the relatively flat valve for intake, and also for exhaust valves. They had to use better materials for the exhaust valves to withstand the heat of exhaust gases. It all seems to simple. Jump in the car, floor the throttle. Lets go! No … will the engine start? Will the driver get connected to his safety belts, phone, air system, communications to his team … his car. What’s that noise? Is something failing or thinking about failing??? There are a lot of factors. Traffic … should I pass that guy? Go up in the marbles on the high side, where tire debris has created a skating rink …go low and risk being pushed up into traffic with centrifugal forces??? What should I do??? AJ wins in his Sheraton-Thompson Special … powered by a Meyer & Drake naturally aspirated (NA) ‘Offy’ engine having 252 cubic inch displacement (CID). Ford was also in the race and were intent on replacing the old Offy as the premium engine for American racing.
