December 6, 1976. A day in Landspeed Racing History.

I love the USA. How much longer will we be a free nation?

Asking questions is one's only way of getting answers.

The rational person lets verified facts form or modify his opinion.  The ideologue ignores verified facts which don't fit his preconceived opinions.

Is there actually an official Women's LSR record other than the Guinness book of close enough?

No, but it was an officially timed two-way effort so considered by many to have been the unofficial Women?s Land Speed Record at the time.

it was timed by Earl Flanders under FIM regulation....that was all...more didn't happened with this timing....

and actually....the runs was on a open class......

unfortunately...there was a Man's Ego which was in the way....

more tough for that guy was....that he never could show the potential of the SMI as Kitty done......
