Wheel turns full circle, yet again

Apparently Koenigsegg is working on an engine without a camshaft. Pneumatically operated valves were all the rage in the 1890's,; next we'll be having tiller steering(or its modern equivalent, sidestick).Hopefully external contracting band brakes won't be making a comeback on cars ; Dr Fred Lanchester's 1905 Disc brake invention will do nicely thank you.
