Team Arrow Racing on SALT ADDICTION
« on: February 27, 2009, 11:54:32 AM »
This month's SALT ADDICTION focuses on Bob Williams and Team Arrow Racing. Bob is Canadian and a former drag racer and road racer. He built the popular, TEAM ARROW RACING 500cc streamliner dressed in red that doesn't have a driver's canopy, but instead utilizes a periscope for the driver's vision. They've made the 2 Club with their machine, but the ultimate goal is to rewrite history taking down the giant, Wilhelm Herz of NSU racing fame. Here's his story:

Thanks for letting me share!

Rocky Robinson  :cheers:

another great story, thanks Rocky... those guys have to be a bubble off plumb.... periscope bike... WOW, I saw it on the salt the first time they were out and couldn't believe it.  I thought Jack was brave (or crazy) when he put one on a car... I figured that one out on my own...  :cheers:
Way too cool guys...  8-)
