When in NZ this summer, Casey Hill gave me a copy of "Three Times in a Row" by
Bill Ward (2006). It was a quick (118 pages), fun, personal account of his
B'ville efforts. The back cover reads: "Everybody who has raced at
Bonneville has a story to tell of their efforts, achievements and even their
disappointments and the fascination the place has for them. This is mine."
I think everyone who has ever campaigned a vehicle will be able to identify
with his triumphs and tribulations.

Subject: [Land-speed] LSR--BOOK?
Somebody on the List recently recommended "FLAT OUT", the motorcycle land
speed record book by Rocky Robinson--I just finished it and it was a great
read, so thanks to who recommended it.
So guys & girls, please take a lot of photos and videos and think about
writing about your exploits when reaching geezerhood (if not before!).
Meanwhile, any other recommendations for LSR related full length books ?
I can find a lot of books by searching the web, but recommendations by List
members would carry extra weight.
