Although I’ve had a dream to race at Bonneville ever since
reading about the
Blue Flame Rocket Car
when I was
kid in the 70’s it wasn’t until
my friend
Scott Kolb built a 125cc partial streamliner and started racing it
there that I realized now was the time and that I had to get my own wheels on
the salt. I first start working on Scott's team in 2009 with my first trip to
Bonneville in 2010. In 2010 we set the record for our class and this year we
are returning to not only defend that record, but apply what we have learned in
the wind tunnel and with a new, more powerful motor and far improved suspension
to try to up out record significantly.
Bub speed week starts the 24
th
of August this year which is 3 days as I write this. Here are a few pictures of
the bike in Scott's shop taken about 3 weeks ago as we scramble to get it
finished and on to the truck for the trip to Utah. Looking at these pictures you can see where I got a lot of the inspiration for my bike.
