Speed Was Feature Of Car Racing

From the outside it looked just like any other Renault. It didn't look very different inside, either, except that the Chev Corvette engine took, up all the rear seat and engine compartment. But on the track. Woweee! This 150 m.p.h. racer of John Miller's gave nothing else a chance in the beach racing championship at Tahuna over Easter. An excellent meeting which drew a big crowd, and contestants.
