Record speed car, I don't think so.
Race car, that's sure.

Yes nicanary, Hispano Suiza is correct, but now, I need the model's name.  I locked for you for one try or 24 Hours.

I think you're probably looking for "Sardina". This is almost certainly a reference to the very slim bodywork, which made the car look like a small fish.
