Bonneville Land Speed Record Run (VIDEO) Full screen...turn it UP

[tltony]

My friend Pete Aardema and team set two world records with Pete's Model A Ford powered streamliner. How about 240 MPH using a 80 year old block!
This is what desert racers do when not in the desert.

Go full screen and turn it UP!

Awesome clip, thanks! IMO Bonneville and drag racing are the purest forms of Motorsport.

Ha ha. The rules require a Model A block. The rest is up to the racer. This has upper and lower crank girdles, three layer, billet aluminum, DOHC head. Billet crank, dry dump, electronic injection....
