Heston Napier Racer, or Napier-Heston Racer depending upon whether you listened to Heston or Napier. Powered by early version of Sabre engine. Written off after crash landing circa 1941.

Curses. :mad:

Good show Widewing. Thought it might have lasted at least a day.  :)
Think it was written off c. June 1940 though, on its maiden flight. That'll learn ya.  ;)
