Claveau Descartes, 1948. Another debutante at the 35th Paris Mondial de l'Automobile. An advanced 6 passenger luxury saloon by Émile Claveau with a SOHC alloy 2.3 litre V8 engine driving the front wheels through a 5 speed gearbox. The bodywork was fabricated from an alloy of aluminium and copper called Duralinox. Claveau had presented the car in model form a year before but 75 years ago this weekend he showed a fully working prototype that had been built with the cooperation of Aluminium Français. The Descartes had a drag coefficient of 0.29 and a top speed of 95 mph, both remarkable for 1948. However it went no further than a single prototype

Porsche “Berlin-Rome” Type 64 (1 of 2). 
During 1938, Ferdinand Porsche and Major Adolf Hühnlein met, and the subject of establishing an endurance motor sport event was discussed. Hühnlein was inspired, and he set in motion a plan to organise a race from Berlin to Rome, a 1500km event that would take place in September 1939. No doubt Hühnlein’s motivation to his superiors included promoting Germany’s excellent system of Autobahns which this race would utilise, and the event would also tie in conveniently with the start of production of the KdF-Wagen.
In preparation for the race, it was decided to build three special long-distance race cars, and to Ferdinand Porsche’s delight, these were ordered and paid for by Volkswagen. For political reasons the cars were called KdF-Wagen and so in Volkswagen circles the car was known as the Type 60K10, although the Porsche engineers referred to it as the Type 64.
The 64 was to have an aluminium body, and the wheels were fully covered with removable alloy panels. Due to the event being a long-distance road race, Karl Fröhlich designed the car to carry two spare wheels in its nose, a move which meant the standard fuel tank would have to be relocated further back on the passenger side.
The engine used in the Type 64/60K10 was the standard 985cc unit as used in the KdF-Wagen, by increasing the compression ratio, power output was raised to 32 bhp at 3500 rpm.
With the race date set for September 1939, production of the three cars, Sports Car 1, 2 and 3, commenced in the summer of that year. The three chassis numbers allocated to the race cars, also referred to as the KdF-Rekordwagen, was 38/41, 38/42 and 38/43.
Karosseriewerk Reutter were given the task of making the bodies for the three cars from 0.5mm alloy sheets, but it wasn’t until 19 August 1939 that the first body was completed, a fortnight before the official start date of the Second World War. The second car was only completed on 20 December that year in a dark colour, while the third car, finished in the same silver colour as the first car, was only completed on 15 June 1940.
The plans for Porsche’s own sports car were already on the drawing board in 1947 and the first of the new 356 models was officially registered in June 1948. Just as the Type 64 had looked so ultra-modern when compared to contemporary sports machinery of the day, so too did the Porsche 356 immediately date other sports cars of the period. It was at this time that, with the war now over and plans to develop the 356 into a really competitive sports car in the market, that the old Type 64 became redundant to Porsche. Fortunately, the Swiss racing driver Otto Mathé had shown an interest in acquiring the Type 64, otherwise this crucially important piece of Porsche history may well have gone the way of its two siblings, and been scrapped.
“Otto Mathé, was one of the first, if not the very first driver, to use Porsche products for racing,” said Oliver Schmidt of the Prototyp Museum in Hamburg. Today there are two Type 64s in existence, the first being the 38/41 car Mathé bought from Porsche in 1949. The second car has been built up from the spares that Mathé bought from Porsche.

TECH TUESDAY: Williams become the latest team to adopt a tech trend thats set to sweep the grid
Following the lead of Aston Martin and Red Bull (as discussed here previously) Williams are the latest team to follow the trend of super-drilled brake callipers. These were introduced on the FW45 in Melbourne and were raced by both Alex Albon and Logan Sargeant. When compared to the traditional style undrilled callipers on the current Ferrari, it can be seen how much more extensively they are drilled around the area where the calliper is clamping the pads to the brake disc. This will increase the cooling capacity for the brake disc, requiring smaller brake ducts for a given level of cooling, and therefore an aerodynamic benefit – as the front brake ducts are quite aerodynamically disruptive. TECH TUESDAY: The cunning design area that Red Bull and Aston Martin are leading the way in exploiting However, the fact that there is less material in that part of the calliper (because of the drilled holes) means that the calliper itself would tend to get hotter as there is less material to dissipate the heat. To combat this, there is an array of exposed pins within some of the holes, made from material with good heat conductivity, taking heat away from the body of the calliper. Aston Martin's 2023 brake set-up on the left, with Red Bull's on the right These callipers save around 200 grammes per corner over the conventional undrilled component, giving a total saving of 0.8kg. Not only is that valuable in getting the car on or below the minimum weight limit, but the saving is all in un-sprung weight, which is extra valuable. Sprung weight is supported by the suspension but un-sprung masses such as the wheels and brakes have a much bigger impact upon the car’s ride and mechanical grip. TECH TUESDAY: Dissecting the design secrets of the RB19 – and why Red Bull’s rivals are likely to be worried Brake callipers represent one of the few remaining areas of the car where there is still a big degree of design freedom. The manufacture of these new-style callipers is a long and expensive process. Williams’ new drilled brake calliper, with the array of cooling pins (highlighted in yellow) which are there to conduct heat away from the calliper body which is being transferred from the brake disc Typically each of them takes around 20 hours to create, compared to around 12 hours for the traditional type. Special equipment has to be made to drill within the aluminium alloy of the calliper. It cannot be drilled too quickly as the heat this would create would warp the calliper and render it scrap. Williams are only the third team to switch to incorporate this drilled/pinned calliper technology but it can be expected the others will follow. Ferrari are still running a traditional undrilled calliper. This would typically weigh around 200 grammes more and require a greater brake duct size for a given level of cooling. It should however be stiffer, giving a better brake pedal feel via Formula 1 News https://www.formula1.com

Rick Dobbertin's outrageous Pontiac J2000. Magazines of the day described the J2000 as being from another planet. It featured a pneumatically lifted flip-up body and a flip-front, all covered in insane graphics incorporating dozens of colours. Its tube-frame chassis was made from polished 304 stainless steel. An alloy 350 Chevy up front ran dual Magnuson superchargers, dual Rotomaster turbos and a 20-port nitrous system. Like the engine block, the aluminium four-speed Lenco was fully polished, while the solidly mounted Dana 60 rear end measured just 25 inches axle flange-to- axle flange which left only 8.25 inches between the tyre's sidewall bulges! It had to be that narrow to tuck those custom-made 20-inch-wide wheels and tyres high up into the narrow J2000 body.
