a much different way to hand crank start a car...

skip the first 1:14 to avoid seeing how many times that this didn't work... a lot like seeing someone try to kick start a Harley a dozen times, it's just boring, until the one time it fires up

skip ahead to 4:20 to watch these Edwardian era automobiles get underway to the start of their race, they don't start racing up the hill til 7:20
