		Serpollet's car used an oil-fired 'flash' boiler, which fed steam to a four cylinder enclosed engine which was very advanced and was similar to the conteporary petrol engine design, with poppet valves and an enclosed crankcase.
		Fred Marriott regained the Land Speed Record for steam when on 26 January 1906 he attained a speed of 121.57mph over the flying kilometre at Daytona Beach, Florida (he attained the even more impressive speed of 127.65mph over the mile but this record was never ratified).
		It took petrol engined cars nearly four years to break Marriott’s record, but if things had been a little different Marriott may have held the record for even longer, for the following year an improved car with a higher boiler pressure and more powerful burners was taken to Daytona to attempt to increase the record.
