After watching the video I am impressed with the way they are building the car. Man is it STOUT!!! Glad to see that they have been using the Speed Demon and the Fergusons for guiding advice, and his comment on how helpful the Bonneville "family" is in assisting each other in going fast is so true. It will be fun to watch them as they progress on the salt.

Not much matters and the rest doesn't matter at all.

  I just read a HOT ROD mag. article on Speed Demon 3. I wouldn't be surprised if they go for 500 at Speed Week after shake down runs with their E engine. I hope Sid will there with his car.

Yep, it'll be there. Body panels redone & I'm fixing the fire damage.

Good luck Buddy.  I wish I could come out for SW and see you hit big numbers but at least going to try for WOS.

The new Speed demon this Car/body has been 300 before, at Lake Gairdner ,
This wil qualify it for the Fast lane at the start line .
It also has a VIN stamped on it  whuch makes for less paperwork for international racing

You are all forgetting that this Car/body has been 300 before, at Lake Gairdner

The car that Aaron Brown is building is a 100% new build.

  Reg Cook just posted pictures of 5 containers on the way to Bolivia. He has 70 volunteers  going along and is properly prepared. Three of the cars are contenders for  :fridayFIA records, should be fun to follow

I'd be scared just getting there and back with all the problems that went before them.  I wish them the best!

  The Kiwis will overwhelm them with slang and make them their MATES. No worries :cheers:

This will be interesting to watch!

I wonder what's going on with Target 550?
