She calls it a drag racing hot rod wait for the video https://www.foxbusiness.com/features/drag-racers-son-inherits-400-mph-challenge-strange-inheritance
After trying a few different ways I was still unable to watch the video. Nevertheless, not everyone is hip to the difference between a drag car and a land speed car, and I'm sure most watching Fox news could care less. You referenced to a "she". Was "she" a reporter or someone in the Danny Thompson inner circle? It really makes no difference, we all know what the car really is, as do the editors of HOT ROD, who've written a couple of interesting articles on Danny and his (unrealized) quest for the record.
Thanks for the tip, I'll watch the show Monday. Strange Inheritance is a good show that often features car collections that are passed on to the next generation.

With all the press Danny Thompson has recently received it's worth bringing this back up. It aired on Fox News "Strange Inheritance" with Jamie Colby on March 26th and is listed as SPEED KING Season 4 episode 21. I watched it when it first aired and was pleased to see Danny getting national coverage for his upcoming record attempt. The show was centered around his "inheritance" of the race car but gave him great press of his endeavor. Jamie and the producers did a nice job of making it interesting to those who had no clue what a Bonneville Land Speed race car is. I feel sure it will re-air and can probably be looked up now. Congratulations on you new record Danny.
