  1. June 1, 1946: Tremulis proposed a jet-powered land speed record car to Lew Welch, but ended up with the super-streamlined Novi proposal shown at left. The images of Lew Welch and Ab Jenkins are shown in the background. Tremulis was so impressed with the power-to-weight ratio of the Novi's, that he focused on them for the next two decades.

    This picture was taken on the Miller Ferry boat ramp at the north end of Catawba Island (north of Port Clinton, Ohio). The ferry goes to South Bass Island and Put In Bay. If you squint really hard you can see the Perry's Victory and Int'l Peace Memorial on the horizon.
