What an interesting photo.............the proportions of the inch pincher seem exaggerated, especially considering it is closer to the camera.  The rears are huge and the fronts small.........it looks dwarfed by the coupe in the other lane.  Amongst the other interesting details, the inch pincher is running I/G against the J/G coupe and what appears to be a a buggy bar in the rear. I love the unpolished BRM's and big and littles.  Great shot - and out in front!

I noticed that as well, Dave. Since the cars are going through the traps, I think what we're seeing is the driver of the Inch Pincher just closed the throttle and weight has shifted from the rear of the car. Looks cool as hell, too.

Those are Wolfrace wheels.  Cool

The slightly squared off slots distinguish them from Cobra Supaslots that were available around the same time.
 
Popular back then as they were available with the correct stud pattern for the Beetle.

I had a set on a 69 Bug and they were great quality. They cleaned up well as long as they were not left dirty for too long.

Time for a 'come back' ??  Cheesy

Cobra's have what I would call the more traditional 'rounded' slots. Wolfrace had those 'squared ends to the slot and always had the name Wolfrace cast in the rim face.

I can't remember just how expensive Wolfrace were back then but they were not cheap.
