Return of the Edwardians

Return of the Edwardians

Two months from now the Goodwood Members Meeting will occur in Goodwood, U.K.   We hope to attend Goodwood one day as it is the pinnacle of historic car meets. A special category to watch are the cars from the Edwardian era (early 20th century) competing for the S.F. Edge Trophy.

One particular beast was the Fiat Isotta.  At 17-feet long with a 16.5-ltre straight-six aero engine making 250hp and 820lb/ft of torque at the lowest revs.  It was capable of reaching speeds of 120ph and was only limited in speed by its chain drive system.
