Ray:
The Red Car Shootout will have to wait until at least 2014 now. I guess the good news is that I won't be getting salt all over it just yet. It's only got about 1300 miles on it so far. Hopefully, I'll still be making two more trips to Bonneville this year, but they'll be in my pickup. The little red car will have to wait.
In fact, I may not even bring it next year. I should have the 1959 Commer Cob ready for its assault on the WoS 150MPH Club, which I'm hoping will be at least the 105MPH Club. The new engine is running and ready to go in once we get the brakes and a few other little things straightened out. It should be the World's Fastest "Production" Commer Cob. So far, Gabriel Uttley is the only guy I've talked to on the Salt that knows what it is!
I'll be doing a "NO rain" dance for the next month.
