Episode description

Michael Callahan's Cyclone isn't just any Mercury Cyclone. It's a Cyclone Spoiler II...a rare vehicle that was Mercury's entry into the NASCAR Aero Wars. Together with its cousin, the Ford Torino Talladega, this car was designed to battle Mopar's legendary Charger Daytona and Superbird twins on the NASCAR Super Speedways. But that's just the start of the story. This particular Cyclone Spoiler II has seen time on the Bonneville Salt Flats. Listen in as Michael Callahan shares the unique story and experiences behind his '69 Cyclone Spoiler II.
