I have added a sponsor section to the original post, as I get them I will post them.


If anyone wants to ride up from me I should have 1-2 seats. Only thing is I will most likely be going up Friday morning so I can help with final course build and setup.

I can work on matco too... I have a good friend at matco... I have a few conections from full scale racing.. In 2007 I broke the land speed record at bonnevile in Dennis Zainfelds BM/MP. been racing for about 18 years.. hopefully going back 2009 (if Dennis has the streamliner ready) to try to break 500 mph.

I know Dennis has a partialy built bellytanker that he would sell fairly cheap. tried to get me to buy it last time we were at Bonneville. just body, tube chassis, and partial front suspension. It is a blast! I will show you guys the video and pics when you come up for the comp.

Dates are wrong on the Event brite page?


Has this been posted in the competitions section yet? Might pick up more speed there. Maybe people are just waiting for pictures of the course? Thought there would be more of a crowd draw for this type of event this early on. Oh well more prizes for me.

I sent him a message about the dates. I was waiting for all the stuff to get in order before posting in the comp section. At least until the event bright is fixed.
