2011 Bonneville Speedweek Videos ~ Post em here!
« on: August 19, 2011, 10:01:33 PM »
I figured it would be cool to start a thread where everyone that has videos from this years Speedweek can post the links.

Here's my first attempt at putting something together, hope you all enjoy :-D

good audio. very nice how the runs were pieced together
from different vantage points.

what was the piece taken off of the number 66 car ( behind the injectors) ?

Here is my driveshaft letting go at 191. My guys worked hard to weld the transmission back together, get a drive shaft and get the 2100 back out on the salt. No chance of a record but we also had a goal to go 200. The last run we went 200.739 with a peak of 204 MPH. Thanks, Matt, Mike, Jerry, Jeff, Joe, Kix, Chris C and Chris H. and everyone that stopped by to check on us. It was great to meet a lot of people from this forum.

The small tank on the 66 car is fuel used for starting. Probably gasoline as it is easier to start a naturally aspired fuel engine on gas. The fuel usually gravity feeds the injectors thru one of the fuel line junction points and after it's started they close the valve on the bottom of the tank as they open the nitro/ fule valve. Simple process that works...and I've over simplified it.

Sparky,

Too bad the audio was not fixed until later in the evening. I apologize for that, not Sparky's video expertise.

Sure hate the split screen.  Too old for MTV.  Wonder if the chase truck observed the pit speed limits.  Saw Kilger and George, didn't hear nothing said.

Grumble, grumble.
