Wes & List,
Bruce Geisler's Stude has probably made more runs down the "Black Line"
than any other entry.
He has run in the 250 MPH range with Gail Banks Turbo assist. Bruce is a
past-president of SCTA and a faithful & fierce competitor at the Salt.
The car has set many records with a variety of powerplants.
Tom, Redding CA - #216 D/GCC

And just a bit more, ... the Studebaker coupe that Courtney Hizer would
provide engines for was out of Vancouver, WA and had been running on the
salt since 1958-9. About Desert Storm time, it was undergoing a complete
re-working to freshen it up by Gary Vail. Still has registration decals
from every year on the windshield. Tomoka Brady built the V-6 engine they
ran in the car. Now she just does induction systems. Somebody on the list
will know about Geisler, the third name on the car at that time.
