| Success in numberless racing events helped to create a solid reputation on the tracks. MAG. engines played an important part in Europe's motorcycling-scene, often compared with big names as J.A.P.! In 1913/14 the Matchless ohv-works-racers (more successful at Brooklands than at the T.T.) were equipped with MAG. engines, as well as the French G.P. winning Clement-Gladiator and Motosacoche. In the 1928 European championship the Marchant-designed o.h.c. works-racers were ridden to victory by Walter Handley in the 350 AND the 500 cc events! |
