Hi all, I'm Bob Clark, Coalinga, CA is my home. I have always had a fascination with Bonneville, and discovered its location on a trip home from Sturgis in 2002, have been attending Speedweek pretty much ever since, as a spectator. At 55, its time for me to put up or shut up, so I just bought a Hayabusa, and plan on running Speedweek in 2011. I plan to run in 1350 m/bg, (I think) and my main goal is to live my dream of running Bonneville, and a 200 MPH timeslip for the wall. I bought a rulebook a couple years ago, (will get a brand new one this year) and have been studying it along with the tech sheet as well. I plan to run El Mirage next spring for experience, and to get SCTA tech'ed. After 36 years working in the oil patch here, I am hanging it up in February, so I can concentrate on my mission. I have been lurking here for quite a while, just signed up recently, and do appreciate the wealth of info I have already gotten from all of you. I have already picked out some people from here to bug with questions at the Salt next month! Thanks in advance for all the help, see you at the Bend and on the Salt next month!
