    Corvettes on the road course at L A County fair grounds in Pomona. Photo was taken from overpass seen from the ground in a earlier photo. The end of the drag strip is in background by the narrow trees.

    Don Jensen's twin-engined gas dragster. He ran a gas dragster record of 155 MPH at Kingdon in February 1957. In this photo, the car appears when it was set up for Bonneville. Note the swing axles. Jensen did not have money to finish the car to run at Bonneville, so he turned around the rear engine and ran two pinions with axle mounted solid for drags.
