the Buddenbaum Streamliner
« on: April 15, 2009, 05:50:18 PM »
Brother Lou has a new Bonneville Story out and this one is something else - A 3cu.in. engine :-o pushing a little streamliner over 130 mph -
Now how cool is that. Check it out - have fun    :cheers:

Bonneville Stories, Part VII, has been released on YouTube.

If really good things can come in small packages then really fast things can come in really small packages, too.  John Buddenbaum, a metal fabricator and Eric Noyes, a NASA engineer set out to go very fast with a very small engine.  With an engine not much bigger than that of an average size lawn mower John and Eric set the new world record of 144.891 mph with a 50 cc engine at the Bonneville Salt Flats in 2008.
 
Buddenbaum and Noyes are going GREEN.  They are testing an electric battery pack in 2009.
