FLATCAD RACING Bonneville 2011 Build

Cool, that should keep you guys grinning for a while.

 

Congrats to you and your crew Buddy, Tim Jones

 

Carl is correct we want tee shirts with record printed. Great job Buddy and to all that helped.

In impound, in altered class, on a 151+ run in the 2, 160+ in the quaeter

 

Pretty damn cool Buddy!

 

Real quickly-we have Dale in impound, for a backup run in the morning. We haven't been worried about record speeds, just top speeds in the 2-1\4.

We haven't run 3 miles yet, but will in the morning. I've got Dale a mid-range tune, 300 mor RPM, and will add 5lbs air to the tires.

Look for 170+ mph.

 

Wish there was a LIVE FEED where we could all watch and celebrate with you guys!!!!!!That is awsome,record breaker right outta the box

 

How many classes are y'all running in?

 

You gotta get us a video with good sound of the old flatty at speed.

 

Just drove by at dusk. Looking good in impound. GOOD LUCK!

 

AMEN! We wanna see and hear it from inside the car!

 

Keep it rollin guys. Sounds awesome!I made it home this eve and am watching now since it is hard to keep up out there!

 

Hey Trent glad to hear you made it home ok, Tim is lookin over my shoulder right now checking out the HAMB...........

 

The Junk Brothers made in back to Missouri last night. Looking forward to the drags. I have video of the Flatcad leaving the starting line but who knows when I will have the time to post it.

Bad ass!!!!

 

Our gang just got back in at 4:30 this morning after a long drive. Glad to see you fixed your freeze plug and made some history. ( and nice to meet you guys also)

 

165.949 Wow Congrats Buddy on a great time first time out, man thats an accomplishment in its own right!!!!!!! Great job!!!!

 

Kudos Buddy!

 

Thanks for all the support!

We managed records in both classes, with a top speed of 165.949 mph. The car needs taller gears-we were running 2:40 in the QC. We're headed home, and I'll give you a fll report then.

180+ should be realistic in this car, if we can just get it geared tall enough!

 

Good job guys!

 

Congratulations to Buddy, Dale and the rest of the crew
