Just got this from Al & Jane, it needs to be shared.
We were guessing at the year, due to the fact I was pushing with the Jimmy, we're thinking 94 or 95.
Maybe the watchers can narrow it down.
All those years have run into one big blur now.

Here's a good sound clip from Lake Gairdner in 95. The salt was wet & wouldn't hook up. Best speed was 370something.

Al's 400+mph runs during the late 80s and early 90s are among my fondest Bonneville memories. Visiting his pit was always a special treat, too!
