I went to visit Bud yesterday. He is home and doing well. Mind is sharp as ever. Bud would enjoy hearing from any old friends with lies about Bonneville or life in general. Having been in a two month coma did not change him much.

Glad to hear he is doing better, he is a cantankerous old coot and had good stories to tell. We wish him the best.

Happy to hear he is doing well. What ever happened to his old lakester?

"Got'Cha" was first run in 1974. Bill Temple entered both 2 clubs in 1976 with records in AA/BGR. At El Mirage 201.79 and Bonneville at 220.

In 1977 Greg Temple started driving "Got'Cha" and entered the El Mirage Dirty 2 club in 1979 @ 201.97. Greg went on to set two records at Bonneville, one in 1981 at 241.848, then in 1991 he set another record at 262.230

Bill and Greg were the first father and son to enter the El Mirage Dirty 2 club. They broke the D/BFR at Bonneville in 1981 @ 241 with top speed of 249. This record still stands today. In 1991 they set the A/BFR @ 262 which was later broke by Duane McKinney.

Well, it used to be Los Angeles . . . 50 miles north of Fresno now.
Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.
It's bigger than life or death! It's RACING.
