Russ Lindert unveiled a radical new Spitzer Top Alcohol Dragster at Stanton. As shown above,
the high-mounted wing is gone, the strut tubes replaced by a composite "rudder." Downforce is
supplied by low-mounted wings on the left and right of the car, just aft of the cockpit,
supplemented by a high-downforce body design. Other unique features include a fairing at the
base of the rudder, streamlining the area just in front of the parachutes, with the "puke tank"
located inside the fairing. Other than a couple of test launches at Route 66 Raceway, the car
has not been on a racetrack before this weekend.
