Well done pardner, I saw the World's Fastest Indian as well, never was much interested in the slat flat racing before, but that and your attempts got me interested. Mick.

I know the world's fastest Indian! With four red-necked drunk white men trying to kill you, you'd run fast as hell too!

Benny:
NICE WORK, and thanks for sharing it!
To my tired old (75yrs.) eyes, the front-end sheet metal is reminiscent of the '53 Studebaker Starlight Coupe' - one of the great cars (style AND performance) of all time!
floodgate
NOV SHMOZ KA POP?
Thats cause it is a '53 Studebaker, running a blown 400 Cu In Chevy motor and a Muncie 4 speed with a Ford 9", 2:38 spooled rearend. The blower is running at 11% underdrive, which gives us about 6 Lbs of boost at WOT (Wide Open Throttle). Next year we are going to turn up the boost, and try for 250 Mph and see if we can keep the record for a while.

A BIG congrats! That is awesome to be able to go down in the record books like that.
It's sort of funny though, I just watched "The worlds fastest Indian" sunday night!
That's awesome!
