G'day Steve
We wish them well.
However the significant difference is that both cars built by Steve Pike here
is Australia were taken to the Bonneville Salt Flats to emulate the 1954 runs
by the DHMC. As you can imagine it's a long way between Melbourne and
Bonneville, meaning that all technical/mechanical support material had to be
taken as well.
The Welch car will not leave England for its attempt.

Hello, Healeyphiles -
The Endurance car and Streamliner built in Australia to replicate the
original DMH attempts have made their runs at Bonneville, but I don't know
the result. Denis/Jeremy Welch have recreated their own Endurance car that
will be making its try on 15 November. Their website has some really
interesting videos, including one of the original attempt by DMH. Maybe
others besides me haven't seen this before:
