You missed off winner of the Americas Cup in my yatch. Yes I am Briggs Cunningham. I raced Cadillacs at Le Mans but found the Chrysler Hemi a much better engine. I did produce a road car called the C-3 with Italian body work.

& Dead

Hello M,
Avoiding mentioning James Bond again, did you die in the last 113 years?

Hiya Terry,

Yes I did

Automotive Industry?

Oh yes, automotive and bicycle mainly.

The only person who I can think of who had bicycle and automotive connections that starts with an M is Moulton. Moulton suspension and Moulton bikes. I cant think of your first name.

That'll be Alex then, but if Phil's right I think he should win this one as it's only the surname that counts. (unless there are many possible family members who could fit the bill...)
