I want PICTURES,,, Did UDO and Team get the Record ?  It is not posted on SCTA site yet, but the run logs look like he at least made it to impound.

Man Udo, Jack and Team,,, I am so proud of you guys...

See you soon.

After setting the record it looks like they made two down runs on Tuesday the 17th.  One on short course and one on long course.  Can't tell from the results which run was made first. 

Down run on long course shows them a bit slower.  No other info . . . .

Who was driving ?    Jack or Udo ?

Charles, last time I spoke with Udo I was under the impression that Jack would be driving.  Ofcourse that was a while back.  I think it was before they went to wind tunnel so maybe you have more current info since you were with them during the tunnel testing.  Anyway, the SCTA results list Jack as driver on the record run.      Art

I was thinking Jack would be driving, but since they got the record early on, I was wondering if Udo would jump in and give it a go as well ??

That would be cool if Jack drove and set the record on the cars first visit to the salt (first runs on the new car too)  then Udo gets in, makes a few license passes, gets comfy and then ups the record Jack set ... to cool..  but who knows if they made a driver change ?

hmmmm, or just switch to fuel.  G FMS record = 159.112.

Should be doable, but needs a class switch.

As you know (but others may not) - that unlike me these guys are not novices.  Jack and Udo are both long time 200mph club members.  Udo got his Red Hat on his first visit to the salt with a new D/CGC.   Jack got a Red Hat in his streamliner.  That liner is still running and still getting records but with different owners and drivers.   In fact I think Udo's Monza is still competing.

I was lookin backwards for some pictures and WOW,,,,,,those front wheels caught my eye.  With the recent discovery of 'scrub radius' (for some of us),  those wheels may be what I'm looking for. Where did they come from? Who makes 'em? How do I get some? What do they cost? How soon can I have 'em? What size are they? etc?

  Sorry,  Got  a little over excited,,,,  Any info on those wheels would be appreciated.

         thanks, RICK
It's not over, it's just harder.

Rick,
It's buried kind of deep in his build thread, but Udo made them.  He made the center sections (waterjet, machine shop?) and welded them in other rims.  They do look neat don't they?  Much better than our space saver rims.
