Bonneville 2008 Speedweek (pic's flatheads)

I went to Bonneville yesterday, lots of awesome cars, trucks etc. I drooled on quite a few rides- think I'm still dehydrated from all the drooling!

Ive been in Salt Lake 12 years and can't believe I haven't gone before! I'm already planning on next year for sure. I left the house and forgot the camcorder and the good camera, so all I had was my crappy work camera and didn't have much memory so I was picky with most of the pictures I took. My friend Chris took a bunch of picture too so maybe I can post his as well?
Anyway here they are I hope you enjoy them,

has my street-driven flathead banger (out of my lakes modified) in it. Set class record of ~82.7 mph.

WOW
You be historical.

I would much prefer to be part of a record like that then working on something new.
I've been watching the lawnmower records, I have a couple of spare chassis's and a mid 60's gocart racing engine. I can taste the salt now

I've seen video of that hoovered Hudson str8-8 running, it makes my skin get all funky.
That flathead Model-T is outlandish I love that induction.
