“In the 301-450 cubic inch class Burman in the Marquette-Buick also cut the 10-mile record from 7:57.1 to 7:56.45, and established a record for 15 miles at 11:46.4.

“When we undertake a task, we should not falter from first to last until the task is accomplished; if we fail, we should not begrudge our lives as a sacrifice-this is what we mean by loyalty. The ancient teaching of loyalty meant sometimes death.” – Sun Yat-Sen

“Never give in–never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.” – Winston Churchill
