That's a fun Video.

Went to Speed Week this year and it hasn't changed in some respects.

Thanks,

that was great... I couldn't imagine going 151 in that car... I know even new cars get a little squirely at those speeds.

This was Really Cool.

I sent the link to a Buddy of mine who use to live in Southern California. He is a long time Hot Rod Builder. Here is what he sent to me after seeing it:

"Yes, that is a good video. It also is on 'you-tube'. We were members of the Road Runners club which has some other videos posted. That movie was shot in Pasadena and I recognize some of the streets in the pictures. Dave and I grew up in South Pasadena and Dave had a paper route, we would deliver papers throughout Pasadena and S Pas in his '39 Ford convertible (primered of course, hotrodders could not afford good paint jobs). He had to get up around 2:30 am and go get his papers bundled with string, then load and start the route. I thought that it was pretty exciting to ride around with big brother tossing newspapers real early in the morning."
