the Offy is a rip off of a Puegot? Say it ain't so!


A historically significant early racing star, Bob Burman, poses in his Peugeot in Oklahoma City, in 1915. (he won)

Bob had just received the car back from Harry Miller, who had rebuilt it's blown engine.

Miller copied the Puegot for his own very successful engines, which in turn, became the famous Offy engine that dominated American open wheel racing for decades.
