—i—— SPEED MANIA. [United Press Association.—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.] (Received this day at 10 a.m.) NEAV YORK, February S.
“Alotor car speed will never equal airplane speed,” said Campbell, interviewed at Daytona, while packing to return homeward, “for the simple reason you cannot build an automobile ,t 1 1 aL is stacle enough and stream lined enough, and because there is no known course suitable to permit land speed that can ever approach the possible airplane speed. Given sufficient money to build a proper car and a perfect course, I could drive that machine to equal the present world’s airplane record, but with the same money put into an airplane, 1 could fly infinitely faster.”
