Eddies Chop Shop #89 B/BGS Run
« on: October 06, 2018, 07:54:37 PM »
Hey everyone,

Here is the qualifying run by Eddies Chop Shop #89 B/BGS.  It was incredible to watch.  However perhaps most impressive was the sound.  On occasion at Bonneville, you are able to hear a long, long ways down course.  That's how it was on Tuesday morning at World Finals.

#89 Ran a 403.996 mph 5th mile with a 411.209 mph exit!

I love Eds entire setup, his streamliner, his tow/push vehicle and even his car carrier. Congratulations to him, it is quite the achievement. I look forward to seeing him return. Thanks for sharing the video!

Thanks again for the great video!  We will be back.  Thats only our third full pass,  last year I aborted two runs because of conditions.  This year was 352, 385, 403 hopefully next pass will be even faster.

Nancy was teasing me about how I still can stand and listen to a cool-sounding car and just smile this silly-ass grin that I've got right now after listening to that run.  Like I'm the only one?

Nice run, Ed        Nice run, Ed        Nice run, Ed        Nice run, Ed! :cheers:
