It's done well for a 40 year old design, but technology has come a long way since then.

This whole ordeal sounds much like what the doomsdayers were saying when it was discovered the tickford wings were not to continue and look how accurate they were.

The 1920 Indian Scout is a bit outdated to. If it can hold a land speed record then I think the 40 year old I6 has still got life in her.
