When psychedelic paint jobs were in - Mike Mitchell certainly had one of the
wildest in the sport. Billed at "the World's Fastest Hippie", Mitchell
competed here at an early World Championship Series meet in Comp eliminator with
his Corvette Roadster called "Revolution". Check out original Firebird
chief starter Joe Allred motioning to the driver of the front-engined Dragster
to put his goggles or face shield down before leaving the line. In later years,
Mitchell returned to run on nitro as a AA/Funny Car.
