The Laird Super Solution, built in the early 1930s by Matty Laird for the Cleveland Speed Foundation was the first winner of the Bendix Trophy race from Burbank to Cleveland where it was flown by Maj. James H. Doolittle. Other than being a biplane, it was similar in appearance to the Gee Bee racer. It was an advanced design for the time because of the relatively clean aerodynamic construction and tight engine cowling.
