Sometime in the late 1940s Bill Reynolds is reported to have tested a rocket assisted midget car (two power plants fitted at the rear). Is more known about the car and did it actually take part in any racing?

32 rocket motors, fiired 4 at a time every half lap. There is film of it somewhere on the net, but I cant find it again. Also a guy named Ken Wylie trieed it at Perth in 1947. Others with an interest in that ettempt were Frank Arthur and Ray Reville.
