Default “The Uncatchable” - The Ultimate Street Legal Land Speed Truck

Saw this today and thought I'd post it up. Seems like a pretty bad ass little truck and I know there are some big land speed fans around here.

That's one of the great things about LSR, anything and everything imaginable shows up! With enough power and traction anyone can go balls out!

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

Not to take away from a neat lil truck but.....this is a pretty exciting year for LSR at Bonneville. This year quite a few liners are shooting for the all out wheel driven record. I remember what got me hooked years ago (95-96) were the cars that went 350+, these were streamliners..now you've got door slammers and a frickin roadster pushing over 3 bills! Trust me if you see it, and feel it you'll never forget.

Here's a couple of the contenders for the year, last year folks were ready and Speedweek was rained out so they've had an entire year to get it together.

My favorite because of the style and the guys who've put it together, this thing is wicked!

These are some good reads even if you have zero interest in LSR, the build quality and ingenuity is inspiring.


See you on the salt.
