Following a Flaminia link on the German club site I saw this unusual application for a Flaminia engine. Fascinatingly it seems to be driving the propeller off what would be the front of the engine in an automotive application.  http://www.lanciaclubdeutschland.de/flaminia.html?entry=25&f=

It seems unlikely there are two. I suspect that youtube clip is post restoration as the essentials are the same but some details like the exhaust and decking are different.

There is another clip here; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w32XZLv3iy4

How wonderful. There seem to be enough to have their own race series.
