Title: Blue Flame rocket car 50th anniversary special - Part 2
Post by: Sam Hawley on April 02, 2020, 09:02:34 AM

Here is the second installment in my three-part Blue Flame rocket car special, which I made to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the last American car to break the unlimited land speed record. (In the first episode I looked at the predecessor to the Blue Flame, a liquid fuel rocket dragster called the X1.)

Sam, nicely done! Glad to finally see the Blue Flame and her principals put right in history. I hear there will be a third video?

I really liked the inclusion of Chuck Subs, the original "rocket man" in the series.
