Race, as an engine (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rev

'race as an engine' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for rev that I've seen before include "vicar?" , "Clergy title" , "Minister" , "Gun (an engine)" , "Clergyman, or woman (abbr)" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the Universal.
