One and only Bristol Racer, built around the Bristol Jupiter engine, was beset with handling problems. It was entered in the 1922 Coupe Deutsch de la Meurthe as entry No. 10 but failed to meet the event's conditions. The Racer's handling problems thwarted plans to use it as an engine testbed and it was scrapped in 1924. Photo from: National Library of Australia
