Bugatti Type 32 "Tank"

The '''[[Bugatti]] Type 32''', commonly called the '''Tank de Tours''', was a streamlined racing car built in 1923. Four examples were made, each with a 2.0 L (1991 cc/121 in³) [[straight-4]] engine based on that in the [[Bugatti Type 30|Type 30]]. "The Tank" finished third in the ACF Grand Prix at Lyon that year driven by Bugatti mechanic and driver Ernest Friedrich. Due to the car's poor handling characteristics the vehicle was never entered in another race. This was the first Bugatti to be fitted with roller-bearing big ends in order to improve the bottom-end reliability (Bugatti was rather later than most manufacturers in the incorporation of a fully pressurized oil system, preferring a splash "spit and hope" delivery method). The Type 32 also broke new ground (for a racing Bugatti) by using a three-speed and reverse transaxle unit, the exceptionally short wheelbase and long straight-eight engine making a conventional gearbox difficult to accommodate. It also heralded an embryonic hydraulic front brake actuation.

Another tank-bodied Bugatti racer, the 1936 [[Bugatti Type 57|Type 57G]], was much more successful.

The '''Abarth 1000 Pininfarina Recrod''' was a vehicle designed and built in 1960 to participate in the [[Abarth]] factory's attempts to set a number of international and world speed records. The 1000 Pininfarina Record was intended to compliment the more successful [[Abarth Monoposto da Record|Monoposto da Record]] in the FIA's class G. With features such as headlights and larger air intakes, the 1000 Pininfarina Record was designed to be the more versatile of Abarth's two 1 litre record cars. The vehicle is based around the chassis of a [[Fiat 600]] with an aerodynamic body designed by [[Pininfarina]]. The Abarth 1000 Pininfarina Record was tested on Italy's Monza circuit and set a number of international records in 1960.
===Engine===
The Abarth 1000 Pininfarina Record uses the same Fiat 982cc DOHC engine as the similar Monoposto da Record. Modified from the block of a Fiat 600, the engine produced an impressive 105 horsepower that propelled the 1000 Pininfarina Record to a top speed of 220 kilometers per hour.

The '''Abarth Monoposto da Record''' was a car conceived and built in 1960 to set a number of international and world speed records for the [[Abarth]] factory. The Monoposto da Record was one of the last in a line of record cars built by Abarth that were tested on Italy's famous Autodromo Nazionale Monza. The vehicle integrates an aerodynamic body designed by [[Pininfarina]] and a lightweight chassis built by Abarth. Powered by a 1.0 litre [[Fiat]] Inline-4 engine, the vehicle went on to set 8 international speed records as well as 1 world speed record for its class. Tested in 1960 at Monza, the Abarth set speed records over 12 hours, 2,000 miles, 24 hours, 5,000 kilometers, 5,000 miles, 48 hours, 10,000 kilometers, and 72 hours.

===Engine and Transmission===
The Monoposto da Record utilizes a Fiat 982cc (1.0L) [[OHV]] engine that was seen in a variety of contemporary Abarth sport and racing cars. The engine was coupled to a standard Fiat 4-speed transmission in a MR layout with the engine and drivetrain located behind the driver's compartment.

The '''Abarth 750 Bialbero Record''' was built in 1957 as the next installment in [[Abarth|Abarth's]] line of land speed record cars. Utilizing a [[Fiat]] chassis, the vehicle was built by Abarth to debut their new 747cc Bialbero engine. After earlier projects with [[Bertone]], Abarth commissioned [[Pininfarina]] to design a sleek aerodynamic body for their record car. After construction, the 750 Bialbero Record was tested at Monza by racing drivers Paul Frère and Marino Guarnieri in October of 1957. There, it set three international speed records in the FIA's class H for lower-displacement engines.
===Engine===
The 750 Bialbero Record used the 747cc engine that was designed by Abarth for use in an upcoming [[Zagato]]-bodied road car. Known as the Bialbero, the engine was derived from a stock [[Fiat 600]] engine block. Tuning from Abarth saw horsepower rise from an initial 22 horsepower from the Fiat unit to 61 horsepower in Abarth trim. Ultimately, the 750 Bialbero Record was created as an opportunity for Abarth to gain publicity for their new engine.

Beginning in 1956, the [[Abarth]] factory set out on an ambitious project to break a number of FIA international and world land speed records. The first car to come of this project was the '''Abarth Record Bertone'''. Building the car on the chassis of a [[Fiat 600]], Abarth commissioned a special streamlined body from [[Carrozzeria Bertone]] in Turin, Italy. Designer [[Franco Scaglione]] used the expertise he gained in designing the low-drag [[Alfa Romeo B.A.T.]] series to create the Record Bertone's sleek bodywork. The vehicle debuted at the 1956 Salone dell'automobile di Torino to much critical acclaim. Abarth tested the vehicle throughout 1956 using racing drivers and automotive journalists to gain recognition for their company. Tested exclusively on Italy's Autodromo Nazionale Monza, the Abarth Record Bertone went on to set 20 international land speed records in 1956.
==Variations==
In order to set records in a variety of FIA classes, Abarth needed to fit the vehicle with different motors based on the maximum displacement allowed for each category. The vehicle was seen in three versions throughout its lifetime, each with a different engine.
===750===
The first version of the Abarth Record Bertone to be tested was known as the 750. Equipped with the 743cc engine from Abarth's road cars, the vehicle was build to compete in the FIA's H class for land speed records. Featuring a white-on-red paintjob, the Record Bertone set 6 international records for a variety of distances up to 72 hours at Monza.
===500===
For the next attempt, the Record Bertone was fitted with a smaller 500cc engine to compete in the FIA's I class. Repainted yellow and silver, the vehicle set an additional 8 records for this class in two separate tests. After initially running the vehicle in July of 1956, the team realized that many of their calculations had been off due to receiving an obsolete list of records from the FIA. The team returned in October of that year and succeeded to achieve the remainder of their goals for the class.
===800===
The final guise for the Abarth Record Bertone was known as the 800 to compete in FIA class G. Running a 785cc engine, the vehicle has minor alterations such as new air intakes and larger wheels. Driven up to 24 hours, the vehicle set 6 more records in this class.
