"Yes indeed. At least he knows how to run a Beetle in circles - and get famous in the process!"

You are thinking about the Corvair. Granted, it had the same sort of rear axle configuration, a swing arm, but a Beetle just didn't have the horsepower to get into much trouble when the rear end jacks. The Triumph Spitfire had the same problem for the same reason.
