http://dbpedia.org/resource/Panorama_City_Special_(dragster) an entity of type: Thing

The Panorama City Special is a pioneering streamliner dragster. Believed to be the first "slingshot" dragster, the Panorama City Special (designed by hot rodder Mickey Thompson) had a full body, including skirted rear wheels, and a cockpit windshield wrapping around and over the driver. The steel front wheels were covered by lakester-style wheel discs (Moon discs). The car debuted in 1955, at the first NHRA U.S. Nationals at Great Bend, Kansas. The wheelbase was only 97 in (2,500 mm). rdf:langString

The wheelbase was only 97 in (2,500 mm). In its initial outing, it proved much slower than the competition, hitting only 142 mph (229 km/h), when others were reaching almost 150 mph (240 km/h). Later in 1955, however, it became the first single-engined fueller to exceed 150 mph (240 km/h), recording a speed of 151.26 mph (243.43 km/h).
