Strap the Roman visitor into the passenger seat of something like this.

Start the engine. Explain to him that there’s a box full of a special sort of oil that’s burning in constant tiny explosions, making that thing in front that’s like three sword blades fastened together spin around 2700 times per minute. If he’s not sure what a ‘minute’ is, just shrug and say, “It’s really fast, okay?”
