In the early '60s, I had a friend who raced a Bristol-powered Arnolt in 
the SCCA San Francisco region.  It was hopelessly outperformed  by 
everything in its class by then, but I guess it handled well and was fun 
to drive.  There was a rumor that there was a warehouse somewhere full 
of unsold Arnolts... I don't know if that was true.
