Believe it or not this racecar parked in front of the Zarah Hotel in downtown Grand Bend came from the Strategic Air Command at Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska. We couldn't get any info on how fast the turbine-powered roadster ran. Love the two-wheel trailer!

Don Menard and sons' A/C Coupe was a cool ride. Jim Nelson's Fiat set the speed record in this class using a fuel-burning flathead for power at 132.93. Nelson went to the finals with the Fiat before losing to Voigt.

This is the famous Red Henslee roadster. Henslee in the cockpit Holly Hedrick standing beside him. This car at one time set the modified roadster record at 157 MPH. We also believe this photo was taken when Henslee won the Arizona State Championships in Top Eliminator. (ed note: thanks Doug Potvin for the info)
