These days when you talk about Formula One racing, forget about all but two airplanes--Rivets and
Shoestring
. Rivets is the tubing-and-fabric invention of one man, Bill Falck, and as Falck's imagination changes, so does the airplane. On the other hand,
Shoestring
, the only airplane to consistently beat Rivets on equal footing, was the result of a 1949 team effort, and has seen very few major modifications. It was fast and beautiful in 1949, and today it is still very much the same, only more so.
The original Shoestring was designed by Rod Kriemendahl and was built in Van Nuys, California, by Carl and Vince Ast, with the help of anyone willing to wield a wrench. Shoestring is a fairly big airplane, for a Formula One. Its 19-foot wing has an aspect ratio of over five, which is one reason it can keep ahead of the slightly smaller Rivets in the high, thin air of Reno. All Formula One racers are required to have a minimum of 66 square feet of wing area, but most of them have used a short, wide wing to get the area. Rivets and Shoestring stand alone with their tapered, longish wings. Apparently, the better overall efficiency of the higher aspect ratio wings is well worth the slight increase in drag because these two airplanes consistently bring home all the trophies.
