Product Information

I have never been able to obtain power output figures for these Thomas Specials, and Thomas may never have put them on a brake. Their massive build seems to have made them unduly heavy, compared with current GP cars. The late Laurence Pomeroy quoted the dry weight of the 1926 Talbots as 14 1/2 cwt. and that of the 1927 Delage as 15.8 cwt. When Parry Thomas used his car for record-breaking late in 1926 it weighed out (dry?) at slightly more than 17 3/4 cwt:, which was more the weight of an earlier 3-litre GP car. This was far more than the originally announced weight of just over 15 cwt. and at the 1926 GP minimum was approx. 121 cwt. it is difficult to see why Thomas had to add weight (those iron bodies?), especially as for 1927 the minimum weight requirement was raised to approx. 14.6 cwt. This challenge requires the player to win 40 races against another player. This challenge is easier done with a friend, just score a few points and let the timer run out. The game also goes from location to location as the game progresses, going to cities such as: Los Santos, Liberty City, Las Venturas, San Fierro, and Vice City. b) there is a risk that supply of the products may be significantly delayed because of events outside our control;

It gives you great confidence when a horse has been there and done it because you can do what you did the year before,” the trainer said. “We know the result we got and if he runs like he did last year, which was visually very impressive, whoever beats him will have a hard race to do so. What, however, of another product of his design skill which emanated from his small workshops at Brooklands—the 1 1/2-litre straight-eight Thomas Special? At a time when Thomas may soon be assessed by the rebuilt “Babs”, I would like to recall his more serious efforts to build road-racing cars. The car came out again for the first Brooklands Meeting of 1938 but only lasted for a slow standing-lap. Bradley is said to have disposed of it to someone in Canada but confusion may have arisen over a Marlborough-Thomas, in which case the chassis discovered in this country after the war and alleged to be that in which Thomas was planning to install a 750-c.c. engine could be that of the ex-Scott Car.

Special T-shirts will be awarded to the player if they manage to complete each one of them. Completing all challenges will also award a trophy in the Arcade Trophy Case.

He’s high class and should be the favourite really, it’s just that we were a bit negative and we weren’t sure we were going to go there. Bryan (Drew), who owns him, was quite keen for him to run – that’s one reason – and he has come out of that race very, very well. He will take a step forward for that race the other day. He’s that much older now, we’ve still got a month to Kempton and it’s a valuable race.” Of course, I’d love to run him more, like I would a lot of others, but you can’t waste runs when you think they might not be at their best. You also have to consider the idiosyncrasies of British courses. You want to run them on ones they will be at their best, unless you get a horse like Kauto Star who can do it on all of them and then it’s magical. We’d all love to run them more but it is hard to get them razor right.”Race & Chase (distributed by Matchbox in the UK and Tyco in the US) was the slot car equivalent of holding up a liquor store and legging it from the cops (well, except for the liquor store part).

International Class F Records (J. G. Parry Thomas): 100 miles at 112.0 m.p.h.; one hour at 112.77 m.p.h.Sorry! For those of us who have hurled board games into the air after a humiliating, teeth-clenching defeat, it's doubly embarrassing… An entry of both cars had been made for the light car race at Boulogne, rather more than two weeks after the British GP, drivers: Thistlethwayte and Thomas, but although Thomas had the Leyland-Thomas there, the 1 1/2-litre cars were not taken over. A month later both were entered for the JCC 200-Mile Race at Brooklands, with its imitation road course. Busy with a number of racing projects, Thomas was still attempting to get the cars ready. He had apparently modified the gearboxes, altered the oil circulation and, when Thistlethwayte decided to drive his car instead of entrusting it to Gallop, the seat had to be hastily altered, a difficult task as the tanks in the hall had to be changed in shape. There was still no blower for Thomas, who elected to start nevertheless. On the morning of the race Thistlethwayte managed to snap one of his car’s stout, half-shafts and was obliged to withdraw but the car’s creator had greater success. In spite of pit-stops to change plugs and add oil, Thomas finished 8th, and 5th in his class; at a speed of 65.37 m.p.h., rather more than 10 m.p.h. down on that of Segraves winning Talbot. He would have been 9th had Moriceau not dug his Talbot into one of the sandbank corners and the Thomas on its first racing appearance was beaten by two of these “works” straight-eight Talbots, two four-cylinder Bugattis and three of the Amilcar Sixes in the 1,100 c.c. class. The two rivals met again in a 50-Mile Handicap at the Autumn Brooklands Meeting. Purdy had dropped out of an earlier race, but in the big race the Thomas was going better than ever, and it fought a tremendous battle with Cobb’s Vauxhall, first one leading, then the other, Purdy swooping off the banking to pass below slower cars. He snatched second place from Cobb by the narrowest of margins, but could not catch the winning Alvis. Cobb and Purdy started together and lapped at over 115 m.p.h. Bump 'n' Jump You just had to love a game whose entire philosophy on life was summed up in its three-syllable title: Bump… By the time of the British GP, Scott had, after much toil, got his Thomas running (his wife had been driving Thomas’ No. 1 Leyland-Thomas) although in a war-time article The Motor mistakenly assumed that Purdy and Stott shared the same car and failed to differentiate between the blown and non blown versions. In fact, both drivers entered Thomas Specials for the Grand Prix but retired early, Scott with clutch slip and Purdy after being plagued with oiled plugs. In the JCC 200-Mile Race, however, Purdy’s Thomas Special was again on form and finished 5th, and 2nd in the 1,500 c.c. class, at 68.31 m.p.h., behind Campbell’s victorious Bugatti and three of the 1,100 c.c. Amilcar Sixes. Scott’s car was not fit to run and he was allowed to substitute his Bugatti. At a Charity Meeting in November Purdy won the 100 m.p.h. Long Handicap at 107.14 m.p.h., the Thomas getting round at 108.98 m.p.h. on its fastest lap. Thus in the year in which their creator was killed the Thomas Specials justified his faith in them.
