Vincent Sidecar Nuts

BAD ASS!!! I am a fan of anything land speed racing (The Bonneville Salt Flats are less than 2 hours from me) and that Vincent is nasty!
 
NAR - many thanx for posting up that little gem.

An old boy in a shed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love it. Some shed though.
 
beachcomber,

I thought you'd enjoy that video, I sure did! Reminiscent of Burt Munro but then of course we have
our own Hoofhearted.

Surprised Hoof hasn't tripped over this one yet !!

makes you appreciate the work and ENGINUITY that Hoof and his fellow record breakers [ and chasers ] put into their machines.

Like Hoof's answer to the chair wheel / tyre problem. Not like some roundy round "let's all be different together" racers. Need a new wheel - "no problem sir - just give us 2000 of your finest dollars and we'll sell you one!

Every single aspect of Hoof's outfit has seen the touch of his hand [ and probably some good mates ] and some serious brain effort that didn't come out of a computer [ well most of it ].

The Sprinting, Drag Racing and LSR boys are used to innovation and the "Ohhh, you can't do that - it'll never work" attitude from outsiders. One reason I made the switch from circuit racing to straight lining. Oh yes - and the fact that I was at best, a mediocre racer!
 
Incredible. I just drooled all over my shirt.



"Epimetheus", the being in whom thought follows production, represents nature in the sense of materialism, according to which thought comes later than thoughtless bodies and their thoughtless motions.
