Reportedly had 13:1 pistons(!), racing cams, Brooklands screens, special dual exhaust, special intake manifold with hoses running in the middle of the cylinder head 'valley' via an aluminium tube. The starting carburettor has multiple tubes running to each cylinder. Disc brakes on the front, lowered suspension, wire wheels.

Spam prevention question (must be answered):
The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

What disease did Lucas succumb to?
