Bob Johnson and crew set a record in their class at Bonneville this week.
Yesterday they ran a 227mph and backed it up this morning with a 218. As I understand it, that would put the record at 222+ change. I am still at the airport trying to get home, but will post some pictures here when I can resize them to the proper size.
Here are acouple shots, including the car at speed on the record pass. There is a shot of the time slip of the first full pass of the car, not bad if you ask me.
The other two are just shots I like. One of God's handywork and one of Bob's new look......hehe
I will have a couple hundred pictures up on musclerides shortly and will let everyone know. Rat Rod 32-34s seem to be the rage out there and I just love them, so plenty of those if you like looking at them.
hey bill what was the previous record how bad did he beat it ron PS how's that sun burn
The car is actually a new class, so no record, but they had to break 200 to set a record. The car has so much in it still, so don't think this is it, the car will be back for more.
No sunburn really, just a redneck Irish boy that was in the sun a bit too long one day...hehe
Here is one of George Poteet getting ready to back up a record run. It was pretty cool to be pitted next to them, watch Troy and crew work on Blowfish, etc. They were more than happy to help out when we needed to borrow a tool. George had 5 cars out there, pretty impressive.
One of the XXXLR on the salt, on the way to the line.
