Excerpt from Motor Cars and the Application of Mechanical Power to Road Vehicles

As long ago as the thirteenth century Friar Bacon predicted that it will be possible to construct chariots so that without animals they may be moved with incalculable speed. The modern racing motor car would probably fully satisfy Friar Bacon's ideas in regard to an incalculable speed, so that now, after a long interval, it may be said that his prediction has been realised.
