Joe Freitas -- Genie-Corvair
I don't recall how Joe Freitas
fared in this Genie, a car usually associated with Jerry
Titus.
This Genie-Corvair
first appeared at the 1962 fall pro races at Riverside and Laguna Seca
driven by Paul
O'Shea. It failed to qualify at either event. I remember
it mainly for its loud, piercing exhaust note. It hurt my ears even
relatively far away in the spectator area.
When Jerry Titus drove it the car was fast, but never found reliability.
Joe Huffaker Sr.
is now restoring it.
