Notes: This dragster was a project of three members of the Wichita Louvers car club, with help from Floyd Cline. Bob Leader and Jerry Rogers drove the dragster. It won gas Top Eliminator at the regional drag race held at McConnell AFB on May 24. Newspapers made a big deal out of the tractor seat in the dragster. Photo: Wichita Beacon, June 16, 1959 - MB |

Notes: 17-year-old Tim Baker, son of car dealer Harry Baker, took over driving duties in May. He turned out to be pretty good. He set a national record in September at a divisional meet at M & N Raceway and was a semi-finalist in street eliminator at the world finals at Tulsa on Oct. 31.
