Hello,

We were fortunate to see the original twin Buick in 1959 at Lion’s Dragstrip and then at Riverside Raceway in the pits and competition during December of 1959. It was a remarkable build and fast to boot. Then, in 1960, we were able to film it in action from various spots at Lion’s Dragstrip location as well as in March of 1960 at the Bakersfield Smokers March Meet.

The spectators always stood up to see the twin Buicks blast off from the starting line. For what reason, is questionable. Everyone could easily see the twin Buick FED or any race car take off the starting line without standing up. But, folks will be folks.
