Bruce drives with his eyes closed so it doesn't matter if the windshield is totally covered.:roll:

LONG HISTORY
« Reply #17 on: July 07, 2006, 06:58:26 PM »
A long time after the Stud was out of production , one of them spun
as it shutdown on the first leg of a record.
 As often happened even in a flat spin the rear window left the car.
The cleanup was quite a chore but that was the cost of racing.
Now the Stud is halfway home on a record attempt with no back window.
 Where Ya gonna get one of those ?
Word spread quickly through the entire Stud field and one was offered up
 from a relative and installed in time to do the successful return run.
The Studebaker has not been perfected yet , but a lot of the people are getting pretty close
 and others are more distant than ever..

Bruce sits low enough, what is he going to see anyway ?

This is, what Bonneville and our sport makes different to other sport.

We are competitor.....and we are a big community who helps each other.
