My family and I joined about 85 members of USFRA Sat. and saw the 7P showing at a downtown Salt Lake Independent Theater. It also showed at 2 other SLC area venues. Must admit I too teared up when Burt arrived at the "Speed" altar,and almost bowed down at the huge wooden Bonneville Raceway sign. All his trials and sacrifices,with more to come.
Seeing the "Redhead" pull up on an open trailer was unreal! Even Jim Travis walking behind the "Pumpkin Seed" was all worth it.
Many in the audience cheered & clapped as Burt's speeds were announced.
Me thinks Invercargill Tourism Bureau better get prepared,as well as Wendover Will.
This maybe a limited showing,like Jon says,"ditch work".Burt would approve.
