This is the Redhead, a flathead-powered streaminer. When Jim travis set a bunch of records last year, he took them away from this car. I overheard a very interesting conversation: "Well, what can we do? Build another car?" "Yeah. Let's do it. Then we can get those records back." "Hey...I bet we could take 8 inches out of the overall width and 10 inches off the top. It otta decrease drag a whole lot." They were still debating, but I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a new car from the guys (Lattin & Gillette).
