Video Ohio Mile Runs June 2013
« on: June 15, 2013, 10:08:11 PM »
Brother Lou just sent this for all to enjoy.  Turn up the volume -

 Just Released on YouTube    ECTA Ohio Mile Runs June 2013

http://youtu.be/zMpfPXbsbK4

2 days of racing in under 20 minutes of video.

2 wheel and 4 wheel flat out land speed racing. No interviews, no narration, just petal to the metal mile long pushing for maximum speed. These privateers work nights and weekends to make their machines go just a little faster each time down the track.

Many racers at ECTA also participate in SCTA and BUB motorcycle Speed Trials on the Bonneville Salt Flats. Check out   www.BonnevilleStories.com


Enjoy,
Lou

Thanks Brother Lou     !  :cheers:
