Buell Bros. Racing-Bonneville Stories prt5

[Uncle Jimbo]

  Some of you may already know Tom Anderson and Pete Davis. To the rest, here is you chance. One of the coolest groups you cold know. The embodyment of the spirit of racing on the salt, is right here with the Buell bros. Racing Team. Like many others, the dedication and mind set is the same. I have been convinced that there is no other group of people on the planet like the land speed community. That goes for all the four wheelers as well as the two wheelers, ooops, sorry lets not forget the side car guys too.
So check out this new one, and have fun, ride safe.

Jimbo, I don't understand why you've got two nearly-identical posts on this subject.  How about if you merge them into one topic?  Thanks.

Jimbo,
Thanks once again for your efforts. Together this group of interviews give an excellent panorama of the people and the experience that is to be found upon contracting Salt Fever ! I expect that Santa Claus and fellow Buell Brother Joe Taylor will be visiting Wisconsin Rapids this Sat. night to help Knucklehead Company M/C celebrate it's 32nd anniversary. If any of the Landracing brethern happen to be in the area and wish to join us PM me for directions.

     Thanks for the kind words Knucklenuts. We're glad people are enjoying the short clips. Lou has over seven hrs. from last years BUB event, so there will be a few more shorts, then he's going to put together a 1hr. dvd to be given to BUB to do what they want with. If you see Tom and Joe Saturday please say a big Howdy from Jimbo and the Gray Ghost.
And oh yes !       Happy 32nd Anniversary to the Knucklenuts Co. MC   

Ride safe
Jimbo
