When it arrived, Howard reeled off 4 consecutive wins and finished the year with 10 Main Event wins, 4 Open Competition wins and 9 fast times.

The 1977 season was also very successful with the team winning 5 more Main Events, 11 top 5 finishes, 6 Trophy Dash wins and 6 fast times.

The car was built as a tribute replica of the famous Pete Winters/Howard Kaeding team. The exact chassis blueprints were copied by those listed above and the body was recreated and paint scheme copied from photographs of the original csr by Smokey Alleman and Aaron Farrell while the hand lettering was also copied by Kevin Gotchal.
