Gwen,

Stop by the White Goose Bar for some refreshment. Ask any one around they will be able to point you in our direction.

Hello,

I'm building a Cadillac flathead, that I hope to run on the salt. That's about it!
With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly overhead. -- RFC 1925

You can't make a race horse out of a pig. But if you work hard enough at it you can make a mighty fast pig. - Bob Akin

in order to get in the two club you have to break a record and go over 200 and or be above the club minimum. :-D

Hey One Run Bob tell him how easy it is... Going 200 on the salt is not easy, going faster than the existing class record is a bit harder, doing it 2 times in a row often seems impossible.  Good luck with your quest... I'd volunteer to hold your wallet, but the doc has me on a 30 lb limit.

My question too. If you don't know the requirements how do you know how fast you have to go?

Project 54 Stude 200mph club 

Yeah that should be easy to get, the fastest record is Fogi at 209.985...easy peasy.. :wink:

Who is going to drive it..?

When will it be ready to run?

Been to B-ville before during speedweek?  It's awesome to look at all of the various types of vehicles all striving to accomplish the same common goals..go as fast as they can..be safe while doing it and have a lot of fun and return with lasting memories.. :cheers:

Good luck and start a build diary and post it on the site so we can follow and those with insights to help you go faster and safer can put the knowledge base to work for you..  :-)

Do you have a drawing of the project yet?

I have been to speedweek and world of speed at Bonneville its amazing the cars and familys and racers. I herd the salt is getting thin has it built up any over the last two years?

Thanks for the update on the salt we had a meeting here at the shop and we changed plans. We are building for the the Blown Fuel Altered Coupe B/BFALT class. I will have to sell the wife  :evil: The goal is going faster than 308.517 with my team of old salt pros we should be in the game. What class do you run in? and your record?
