Blitzen Benz...

Fastest man made vehicle in the world for a long time, 140mph on those skinny little tires with no brakes in 1909.

Also this was back in the day of lots of maintenance...make sure to oil that valve train once a day! And change the oil every 150 miles!

Looks like the old girl could use a valve adjustment, that's a lot of daylight between the valve and rocker.
