Event Coverage Tons of Photos, El Mirage Dry Lakes, Nov.14, season final

Great photos! thanks for sharing guys!

 

I was there to deliver the Rocket to docauto Dave. Yes he had to sit in it. Seems I have found someone even crazier than me. It now has a good home.
I'm the ugly guy on the right of the Davenport, Dave is the other ugly guy. Can't imagine why Dave's lovely lady would want to sit with either one of us.

Thanks for the hospitality Dave.

Surprised nobody else posted a picture of Gene Winfield

Gary

 

Hi Gary, it was great meeting you. Gene went for a ride on the couch later in the day. He was having a good time making laps at El Mirage (all in the 180-196MPH range).

Great photos. I remember that rocket car from when I was a kid too. I think I still might have a Hot Wheel of it or their take on it ??

It was a blast out there.. Gene ran pretty strong.. Had some issues with the rev-limiter.. Borrowed a 9800 rpm chip and stuck it in line.. Best run of the day for gene was 196.9.. Last run with the new chip... Gene missed 3rd and hit 5th.. Still ran 188.. Next year.. 209+ and a record..... Badbob.. It was great to see you out there.. Come and hang out next time...

 

Mind if I post that Video you sent me?

Wasn't sure if that was you or not,so I took a chance and said hi. I was trying to get as many pic's as I could before my batteries died. Next time i'll come by your camp and hang out for a spell...

196.9! That's getting really close to 200...I think he can do it!

 

Thanks for posting Doug and Bad Bob, nice shots. I know it's a lot of work and for us that couldn't go.... it is great to see the pics...... Always like seeing Diana's car.....
