Lat-g's
Our friends at Rad Rides did an hour long special program with Discovery channel last august at their shop in Manteno,IL and out at the Salt flats. Discovery follows them as they work on the Blowfish car to attempt a 300mph record. Check your listings but its 9pm central Tuesday night. You might even catch a glimpse of the nova. Should be good.

"Speed Capital of the World: Bonneville

Each summer during Bonneville Speed Week the Utah salt desert transforms into the greatest racetrack on the planet. Scorching heat and slippery salt brings racers to their knees as they attempt to achieve speed immortality."

Is this the same thing as the Blowfish video that I bought a few months ago?

Should not be, Discovery has people out there almost every year filming something or someone. They were focused allot on the Rad Rides guys this year (Aug 08) So I assume this will be some of what is showed.
