The Indian wooden race car was manufactured by the Indian company in 1920. This race car was primarily used for racing on oval, inclined tracks made of wood. At the time, the average speed exceeded 160 kilometers per hour. The competition scenes were extremely intense, with racing drivers racing to knock down the flag. Early high-speed motorcycles were very luxurious, with fuel tanks and fork rods made of copper. The engines were powerful, and the speed was very high. In 1925, Claude Temple, the vehicle manufacturer, became the first person to ride a motorcycle at a speed of 160 kilometers per hour in one hour, and the car also gained a lasting reputation.
