Pure speed

By Paul Crowe

Bonneville is under way. I’ve always found the pursuit of pure top speed fascinating. I am partial to wheel driven attempts. Using a jet engine or rocket motor seems like cheating and wheel driven is closer to what the rest of us do. When a motorcycle hits 200+ you think, “Gee, I could do that” but lighting up a rocket on the interstate is a little farfetched.
