The Racer primary was developed in 1953 Los Alamos for the first generation of US thermonuclear weapons, the TX-14, TX-16, and TX-17 bombs.
   Racer was tested in the Upshot-Knothole series of tests with mockup secondary stages as shots Nancy (TX-14), Badger (TX-16) and Simon (TX-17).
   During the Upshot-Knothole tests the Racer had proven to have inconsistent yield varying from 23 kilotons in the Badger shot to 43 kilotons in the Simon shot.
