So here's the story. I'm in Lincoln, NE today at Speedway Motors with the owner of SCAT Crankshaft on business. He wants to see the museum on the property. http://www.museumofamericanspeed.com/default.dlp So we get the guided tour, I've been in the museum a number of times, but it's always evolving and it's pretty damn cool no matter how many times you have seen it.
So after looking though most of the display pieces, consisting of old Sprint Cars, USAC Midgets, Indy cars, Stock Cars etc....and lots of old engines to fit those cars I see the following:
All I found about this was that it was run in a Midget. It was built by Ron Hoettels who had engines under the SESCO name I think. He was in Milwaukee, WI when he built this I am told.
Pretty cool find in a museum of race cars.
