Event Coverage *PHOTOS: Bonneville Speed Week 2009: A Road Trip with DAD*

Thanks for all of the race car pics Nick. It wasn't good as being there but pretty close coupled with your live photobucket updates. I know your dad enjoyed the trip and you enjoyed the time with him, I'm glad you did it. I'd give anything to have my dad to take to the salt with me

 

Thanks for the pics.

 

beautiful job Nick,...was fortunate enough to have my dad make the Americruise trip in 2000 with me before he passed in 2003...GREAT MEMORIES...good for you two !!! Just as a note of interest the yellow 53 Stude #394 carried our Oregon buddies ashes out the chute @ 225 MPH...at the cost of a piston....good job Lowride !!

 

Great job with the pics. Thanks for taking the time to post these.

 

Finally had a minute to go through this thread. I know it's a lot of work putting together something like us, so THANK YOU.

I need to get my ass to the salt.

 

Thanks Nick! Great pictures!

Hi Nick, GREAT THREAD!! Thanks for taking a pic of my truck! I passed you guys on I-80 in a hurry to get to Wendover. Sorry I never introduced myself on the salt, always too much to do and see. Happy for you that you got to take your Dad-it would have been a good year for me to do the same, but at 84 my dad isn't able to partake like he did a few years ago! Hope to see you there next year....

 

Thanks for the great pics, Nick. It was way cool to meet your pop. You could see that he was digging it and really liking being on the Salt with you. Good for you two...

 

Man, great pictures. Thanks a bunch!

 

WTF is up with that drag link! more pictures of this please!

 

A guy just left my office and said a guy in a roadster was killed when it flipped. Any news on that? I hope its not true and just a rumor

 

Thanks Nick, great picts and good to see that Dad enjoyed the trip as well.
I can't wait to get back out there myself.....haveta work on my dad to come along.

 

Thank's for all your effort and pic's.

 

There was a fatality at the races a week ago Sunday....

So far, I haven't seen next year's dates...

Sorry to hear that... I'm sure he's looking down on you and would want you to try and enjoy car events like you used to.

Cool, man. Glad you guys were able to do that together. What did you drive to Americruise in 2000? I was there that year in this car:

 

Kickass photos Nick, thanks for putting those up... I'd love to take my pickup there someday.

 

Just wow!! Thanks...Someday I hope to be on the salt.

 

Thanks

Great shots

 

Could be the builder thinks the area that's parallel to the radius rods make the link as a whole parallel. Seen that thinking before, despite the fact that the line intersecting point a and point b is still the same.

great shots. i was supposed to go, some stuff popped up at work and i wasn't able to. saw the ferguson's 300 mph liner in there. congrats to Don for joining the club.

 

Great pics Nick! You made me late for work this morning, haha! That's awesome you got to go with your dad. Thanks for all the pics and the live updates too!

 

Absolutely great coverage of Speed Week, thanks for all your efforts.

Thanks...that was AWSOME coverage!!!

 

That was TREMENDOUS! I felt like I was there. Always wanted to go. Post the rest of your pics if ya got more. I loved the airplane hangar. Reminds me of back when America was STRONG!

 

great coverage nick, the shot of poteet's liner kicks ass

 

Thanks for taking the time to put this together. Awesome shots of what has to be a great trip. I'm going next year, hell or high water, driving, flying or walking. And I'm taking the old man before its to late. Life's to short. You've inspired me. Thanks.

Great thread, Nick. Hope to see you again soon.

 

Malcolm,
Great post and great pictures and great to meet you. Good to see some folks from Nebraska! Thanks for posting pics of my rod. Hope your trip back to Omaha was uneventful. My trip back to Cal was a real challenge! but I made it.

Again, great to meet you.

According to landracing.com 2010 Speed week will be August 14th-20th

That's a Saturday thru Friday so I assume tech inspection will be Thursday the 12th and Friday the 13th (yikes! ) like this year's schedule. Someone correct me if I'm wrong....
