In 1923, a new two-liter formula was introduced into American racing regulations. For this formula, Harry Miller produced the '122-inch' model, which was powered by a straight-eight, twin-cam, dry-sump engine. It was a truly magnificent machine, and no expense was spared in its preparation. For the next two years, the Millers dominated American racing, winning the 1924 Indianapolis 500 race, and continuing to be competitive well into the 1950s. The 122 cubic-inch Miller supercharged engine developed over 200 horsepower and Millers set numerous land speed records over the years. This car stands out as one of the most significant race car designs of its day.
