Oh wait,,,,this is my #1.....

Pete-

 

One more..

 

I want to add "run at Bonneville" to my bucket list. It's the pinnacle of this hobby. Keep em coming!

HOW ABOUT THAT NUMBER 2500!

 

Ditto on the bucket list! My Grandfather told me before he p***ed that he was glad he got to race on the salt when he was younger. It's the ultimate finish line before the end! I'm only 33 but ya never know when its your ticket from the big officer in the sky. Please keep the pics ***ming!

 

thought some of u might enjoy this..

 

Give's a new meaning to "Balls To The Wall" Racing!

 

This is a beautiful photo....

 

I loved watching the story of his son restoring his fathers legacy!

 

yea!

 

I know "where's the salt"

 

City Of Salt Lake----Using 20-20 hind sight. It's amazing that no one foresaw what was going to happen to that car. And even after it flew the first time the kid wanted to rebuild it and run it again. Neat car but a bad idea.

 

leaving for the salt in the AM.......................see ya.

 

Not on the salt, looks like a dry lake though.
This is one of my favorite pictures, I had to go find and fire up my old laptop (it was my screensaver picture) I don't know anything about this picture- I probably saved it from the Hamb a couple years ago??

look at all the wool clothes people are wearing! Wool is traditional ya know but you just don't see alot of it around anymore-only the diehards wear it now...

 

Think these are SW 09
Nice pictures Buick59, I think I was standing next to you during the shoot, mine didnt turn out as well...go figure

 

My Dad and Bill Ross will be there again this year...they left this AM. I went a few years ago and had the time of my life...it has to be experienced.

 

bad*** ride!!!

 

Pretty nice shots Buick59

 

And the occasional three wheeler.

anymore salt coupe pics out there??

 

Driven to Bonneville from Pomona. G/BFR record 210.881 and G/BGR record.

 

Can you explain 'driven to..'

 

tail lights in that second picture...

i wonder if he really drove that beast?!

 

We drove it from Pomona CA to the salt flats and went 207mph on our first p***. Ended up with the record at 210.881. Got pulled over outside of Vegas at 5:30 am. Otherwise smooth trip.

 

good for you man! that's awesome!

you have any engine pics?

 

don't have anything to add, but i love this thread

 

The couple of shots that Buick59 posted with the dark clouds are awesome.
