The Radclyffe Cabriolet, as it is known in Volkswagen circles, obviously influenced Joseph Hebmüller II on his frequent trips to the Wolfsburg plant. The Type 14A, commonly known among VW enthusiasts as a "Heb",[1] took many elements of the Radclyffe Cabriolet his company would later build.

The Chicken Tax History

During the Cold War, the U.S. chicken industry aggressively grew and what was once considered a luxury became a staple of the American diet. American chicken farmers started exporting their product around the world, and other countries accused farmers of unfair trade practices and artificially altering the meat. In response, France and West Germany, looking to protect local chicken production and a perceived threat to the health of their citizens, placed a tariff on the U.S. chicken imports. The U.S. responded in 1963, under President Lyndon B. Johnson, by placing a 25 percent tariff on potato starch, dextrin, brandy and light trucks — yes, light trucks.

Quote:

The tariff worked and in 1964, West Germany truck imports declined to one-third of the imported number from 1963. VW van sales and imports rapidly declined to insignificant numbers.....................

During the past 50 years, the original tariff has been modified and removed on every product except for light trucks.

A buddy of mine runs a super-comp dragster ( throttle delay timer to hit 8.90 dial lin.)
1000+ HP, weighs just over 1350 lubs.
All the traction he needs.

I asked him what it would do in the quarter without the timer. he said high to mid 7s.
Keep in mind that dipping into the 7s means a trap speed of around 175 mph or more.
Getting into the 8s usually means slicks, wheelies and parachutes.

Spy photographers have snapped images of what is believed to be a hotter version of the McLaren Senna, which could don the 'GTR' moniker.......................

Like the P1 GTR before it, the Senna GTR could be reserved for track use only, though this is yet to be confirmed.
