The car was built in Paris between 1930 and 1932, then taken to the popular Daytona Beach venue in the United States for an attempt at the land speed record.[2] Power was supplied by two Bristol Jupiter radial aero engines.[1] Some web sources also describe the car itself as being named "Jupiter". Assuming a generous 600 bhp per engine in racing trim, this would have given a power comparable to Malcolm Campbell's cars and so it wasn't an obviously impossible contender. However the general engineering was at the Heath Robinson level and failed to inspire confidence. The car was destroyed by fire on the beach at La Baule, a popular motor-racing venue of the period.[3] References1. ^1 {{cite book |title=The Land Speed Record |last=Tremayne |first=David |authorlink=David Tremayne |publisher=Shire |isbn=0-7478-0115-0 |page=13}} 2. ^{{cite web |title=M.
