ANDREOLI

Quote
Uh, pls give me one clue

Quote
OK, the picture shows a race in 1948 circa, so that's the only date I can provide about.

Pietro Andreoli?

I don't know...as I wrote, some of the names in my index are quite obscure...but not for you to find, they are obscure for me too!
The only way you can find it is if you burn your 2nd clue (and I'm sure you don't need to know the nationality!) and I'll skip the 3rd clue (that I do not know) to give you directly the 4th, that in this case is the source, that is a book. Now, if you want, I can go to the 4th clue and take 2 credits or you can lose 10 but start again with an easier name...

I opt to lose 10 and start again with Number 13

Perfect, now I can tell you what I have about:

In Curami's book, 'la Sport e i suoi Artigiani', there's a picture of 'Andreoli on Andreoli during the II Coppa Michelin'.
That's all I know and it was virtually impossible if you do not have the book or you do not know that is my source.
In this game you'll find several of these hard nuts.

Now go on with your next number that has to be bigger than 100, smaller than 16500 as a general rule and in your case also above 716 or below 616 (that is 666 + and - 50).

That was really a beast of a number!

Then I take the time range clue for the Ratcliffe.

In this case I've got just 1 year, 1932.

There was a British coachbuilder called Ratcliffe. Is it him?

If you would mean DRB-HICOM, I believe you would have listed them as, well, DRB-HICOM?

Unfortunately part of the game is to find the right name despite my way of filing it.
Is it your next guess?
