Event Coverage Mazooma1 goes to Bonneville......

Mazooma you are the Grand Poobah of photography, which of course is shared by the Great Kahuna, Bad Bob. The photos were just marvelous and I enjoyed each and every one of them. I know it's not an easy task posting them and thanks so much for your work!!!!!

 

Doug,thank you for taking the time to post all the great photos. HRP

 

Wow...........That was fun!

 

Looks like a great experience, thanks for sharing.

 

Thanks from those of us from the Right Coast that can't be there. Really sorry my old buddy Willie Glass from Richmond, Va. will not be there any more in his record breaking flathead roadster as he passed a couple of months ago. Have fun for the rest of us.

 

Wow! Thanks for posting the pics. I have to make it back out there sometime.

Reportedly last year with the drip rails hanging out it went over 140 mph with a NA Yamaha R1 bike engine that stock can push the stock motorcycle a bit faster.

My first ride in one of that style SAABs was when I was about 10. It may also have been my carcass' first time exceeding 88 feet per second (60 mph) in any vehicle. Full throttle down a long steep hill on secondary road a mile from our house with my Army Major uncle (married to my hot aunt, see interference engine thread). It felt like at least 100 mph. I was scared.

Always wondered what the drip rails hanging out did to the Cd, and how fast a healthy 440 mounted mid-engine would push one with them removed.

 

Wowzers - Great pics! Thanks

Have friends that have been to Bonneville, never made it myself but I'd sure love to go some year. Just as everyone else has already said, through your photos "the rest of us" can get a very well-rounded look at what goes on. Many thanks!
