Yep!
I remember that they were available to fit Ford, GM or Chysler rear wheels.
The idea was you'd jack up one wheel and replace the wheel with this deadly contraption.
Engage the clutch in 1st gear and split away.
If long enough a piece of wood it would spin once hit the ground and voila!
Generally you'd mash a fender within a short time or if the wood was too short you'd have one h--l of a time remouving it.
When I saw it, one look and I walked away real fast as I did not wish to do the 'ambulance driver' thing!
