MOTOR SPEED RECORD.
ATTEMPT IN FEBRUARY. Sir Malcolm Campbell’s attempt on tlie car speed record at Daytona Beach (Florida) has been tentatively fixed for the middle of February. The course has been lengthened by one mile, by the removal of a pier. This will enable him to develop greater speed before entering the timed section. The total length is now 101 miles, but Sir Malcolm Campbell says he needs 15 miles in order to attain his maximum in his new Blue Bird.
