What happens here
The car's trunk is opened to display its specialized racing features. A fuel vent, equipped with a check ball, is shown, designed to prevent fuel spillage in the event of a rollover. A blower motor, adapted from a regular heater core, functions as a rear-end cooler. Most notably, a 'catch can' fashioned from an old spray paint can is visible, illustrating the ingenuity and resourcefulness of early racing engineers.
Goal: Showcase specialized racing features in the trunk area.
