Mike:
This is a machine I can hardly wait to see run! What a councidence, I
ran into Dave Campos at the Pure Steel Nationals (all Harley drag races)
here in Phoenix this week-end - he is, of course, familiar with your
efforts. His main interest is to hold on to the wheel-driven record
(using Harley engines of course). To that end, Terese has a real
mind-blower up his sleeve. Stay tuned.
