    Thanks for the awesome thread, Kev. My friend EC and I are going to build a '29 roadster to race in the roadster class and hope to have it out there by 2010.....so this is a great reference!

    Here's a shot of Ed Stuck's B/FR that set a new record this year with a two-way average of 268 mph. He had an exit speed of 271 mph on the first run, which I'm pretty sure makes this the fastest unblown fuel roadster ever. He's running an injected Donovan 417 Hemi on about 92% nitro.

    I did the letters, striping and numbers....which of course made the car faster...;) :)

  23. Hamber Cshabang, I hope he will start a thread and tell his Bonneville adventure. Alot of extra miles involved. He will look back on it all and laugh one day......just not yet.

    Kev, Nice pic's man!! Just the inspiration I need to get started on my project. I have been collecting the parts to build a 33/34 roadster project for about a year and a half now. I need to find some time to get started, Those pictures are going to help!!
