Hmmmmmmm
I don't know off the top of my head. I have an article from a German magazine
that has been translated. It solely covers the NSU streamliners so I'll review
it to see if that info is in there. I've never heard a mention of them running
on a dirt lake bed.
A feet forward list? I envision ape hangers, chaps, and 8 foot long forks.
