Feb. 29 Introducing the new British Six-Wheel racing car.: A revolutionary answer to the drag problem created by the front wheels of the grand prix cars is provided by the Elf Team Tyrell's experimental grand prix car. It has four small steerable wheels at the front which account for 12 percent of the total drag, and the designer Derek Gardner, hopes to gain the equivalent of an extra 40-50 hosrepower from the Ford - Cosworth engines mounted at the rear.
