How did these dummys not get their bus stuck?



and do they have any idea how fast their bus is going to corrode now that it's been washed in salt water?

The stunt, which involved members of the High on Life SundayFundayz group wakeboarding behind a six-wheeled RV on the flooded salt flats, took place in March, according to time stamps on photos uploaded to the group’s Facebook page.

the 1971 Johhson Pegasus, did 141 on the Bonneville Salt Flats ( I was going to not post this, but hell, anything that makes a pass at B-ville deserves recognition)


The 1971 Johnson Pegasus on display exemplifies this quest for power best of all, as the machine was used to set a land speed record of 140.625 MPH at the Bonneville Salt Flats (the surface of which behaves much like hard-pack snow). Featuring dual V-4 engines and a streamliner body, the sled first achieved this milestone in testing, prompting participants to hastily arrange officiating. While the body and chassis were developed for the record attempt, and the track was specifically engineered by Goodyear for high-speed runs at Bonneville, the rest of the record-setting snowmobile is said to be constructed from off-the shelf components.

Color home movie coverage of Bonneville, from the San Diego Lancers, with their Jerauld's Speed Shop, Natl City, Baby Bomb bellytanker. 1952, 53, and 54. You might enjoy your own choice of music better, just warning you


a P 38 gas tank... the driver has his knees to his chest, and his elbows outside his legs. I doubt the tech inspectors will let you race like this anymore. You'd die in a roll over.

Al Jerauld and George Barber wanted to be different , everyone was going BIG , so they went small , small belly tank , small engine

In 1952 the car set the record for "O" class lakesters at Bonneville 115.53 Mph ( O class is 90 cid under) It had a destroked and sleeved V8/60 flathead , 88.75 cid with 80 base horse power , running Alcohol and Nitromethane

 1954 it ran 4th in "A" Class lakesters at Bonneville ( not sure what "A class" engine displacement was back then or the MPH it ran) 1956 it ran 160 mph at Bonneville ( not sure what class) , 120 mph at Paradise Mesa Drag Strip and 152 at El Mirage dry lake
