Ken made the NewsPaper !!

 

Front Page News . SWEEEEEET!!!!

 

I saw that car on the salt, and heard it fire up!

Not only is the car and engine design well thought out, but the implementation was awesome!

Kenny, congratulations! No record is easy, and that one was far from soft!

 

That's a great write-up! Thanks Doug.

 

Nice ride ,Saw it at tech inspection , didnt see it run though.

 

Nice to see the newspaper put something about racing in it.
Congrats.

 

Saw the Bonneville record setter today at the Orange Dragstrip Reunion.

 

I missed this the first time around! Very cool, congrats!

 

Nice pic Scott. Nice seeing you today.

 

Congrats Kenny!

 

I'd love to see some engine/driveline details

Ken and crew,

All the best from here in the west for a great safari, hope the tow rig holds up better this year. Stay safe, have fun, and go fast!

Best wishes for a safe and successful record attempt. Dave

 

Ken is on the Salt. tech inspection tomorrow.

 

When I first started to follow this thread; I thought the calender was out of whack.
Now I realize your starting the 2013 version!

As a flat head lover, I'm "rooting" for Ken and the car!!

Just sorry I can't be there this year.

 

Is that the same motor that was in the 50 Merc ? Takes some snot to push a 50 merc to 150

 

Hey guys...here's this years thread...http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=818937

 

That's a fresh rebuild on his last years motor and has never been in a '50 merc. It's always been in the roadster.
