Event Coverage Bonneville "Break a Land Speed Record" Jessi Combs

Hey, something to catch on the tube - Velocity Channel's "The List" show. It was on last night. It's titled "Break a Land Speed Record". It shows Jessi Combs racing out in Bonneville in the Rolling Bones High Speed Division's '32 roadster. And also Jessi becoming the World's Fastest Woman on 4 wheels with a top speed of 440.7 MPH. Look for reruns!

 

Wow - date that this happened?

 

She was in the North American Eagle jet car at the time.

Oh man what a loss. She was an exception to the norm. RIP fastgirl....

Thanks for posting @HEMI32

 

Wow. this is so sad.

 

Beautiful, personable, talented and loaded with guts. A tremendous loss but she will remain an inspiration for all girls that they can do anything they set their mind to.
Godspeed Jessi.

 

Better to burn out than fade away. godspeed to a true racer.
