I've seen this car in several Bonneville videos, and it looks big all by 
itself. Does it sit a lot taller than other lakesters? Bob in connecticut

<< Dick,
 
 #77 lakester is owned by Seth Hammond. He  & several of his crew have 
 driven it. Presently Seth's wife Tanis is doing the driving trying for a 
 300+ average. She managed a 299.7 record this year, just short of what 
 she wanted.
 
 The car was built by Tim Rochlizer & Ernie Bennett and first raced in 
 1962 at Bonneville.
 
 The car was originally built with a small block Chevy and is now running 
 a turbo charged 258 cu in small block. I don't know how many different 
 engines it has run, but it ran a Pinto at one time.
