I tried going to the photographer first and tried to find some reference to the name of the picture which is Reyer.
Can't read the names painted on the thing either. I wondered if he was working the bugs out before they put some
kind of streamliner body on it but got nowhere with that either.

I just can't see that one wheel getting enough traction to handle the engine, and you don't want to start that wheel spinning.
I know it's not an acceleration test but it would take 10 miles to open the throttle all the way without breaking traction.
And if you're not going to full throttle what the hell are you doing there?
