Yabut... Did the pilot do it one hand on the steering wheel, grasping door frame with the other?

re; 200 mph+, 94" wheelbase, Willy B. Borsch, even 1200' out of the gate, the "Winged Express", later 1960's.
Still years before graduating high school, but remember it clearly. Most sat in view of the starting line, we'd pick spots at the traps to watch and feel it fly through the timing array.
I'd post pics, but the interested will google, a better surprise.
