To my knowledge this is the first wing ever mounted
on an open wheel race car. It is mounted on the suspension
applying the down force directly to the tires. This picture is
of the car owned by Nicolas Craw director of the Peace Corps at
the time (1969) sitting in my drive way in Manhattan Beach Calif.
in front of the garage I built it in. My first customer of my first
business.
Nick donated the car to the Smithsonian Museum after racing
it for awhile and as far as I know it is still there.
Nick went on to become the director of the Sports Car Club
of America which was a giant step up from director of the
Peace Corps IMHO :)
