1971 NASCAR Superbird Doing Wind Tunnel Testing
This 1971 NASCAR Superbird is the miracle that never was. According to the video uploader, this car was built as a "What-if" tribute to Richard Petty who instead ended up racing another car that year because of the association's ban on winged vehicles.
Ever since then, the car has resided as a 3/8 scale model which it was developed as until today. Thanks to the notes on the scaled model, the Winged Warriors Club along with Gary and Pam Beineke constructed the car that we see here.
Check out the modern day rendering of what was supposed to be as it hits the wind tunnel in stunning fashion below. One of the creators of the scaled version, Gary Romberg, was even on hand to see his creation come to life!

Pretty nuts how much air actually sucks INTO those little scoops on the fenders. You'd think just by looking at 'em that the air would be venting from underneath.
