EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Leighnor WL-4 NX3154K, a Formula One racer designed and built by the visionary William C. Leighnor in Hutchinson, Kansas, in 1948. Registered under the number 42, this single-seat marvel was affectionately known as the W-4, WL-4, or Mirage. Powered by a potent 85hp Continental C85 engine, the WL-4 boasted a wingspan of 18 feet 7 inches and a length of 17 feet 5 inches. The sleek, aerodynamic design of this racing machine was a testament to Leighnor's engineering prowess and innovative spirit. The WL-4 was piloted by two intrepid racers, Harry Ragland and H.E. Bangerter, who pushed the limits of this agile and powerful vehicle on the race tracks of the day. Although not affiliated with a major racing team or company, the WL-4 held its own against more established competitors, earning respect and admiration from racing enthusiasts and experts alike. This photograph captures the essence of a bygone era in motorsports history, when passion, ingenuity, and determination fueled the creation of groundbreaking vehicles like the Leighnor WL-4 NX3154K. The image stands as a testament to the indomitable spirit of the pioneers who dared to dream and build the future of racing.
