President's Corner: By Jim Miller (1-818-846-5139)
  Hi- Hope you had a cool weekend. El Mirage was hoooooooot! This last weekend was the second meet at El Mirage for the S.C.T.A. As usual for this time of year it gets hot in the high desert and it was hot. I thought it might be nice to give you a rundown of events not about watching cars go fast but about the process that lets them. To start with these days you have to have a car inspected before you can run. For most of the serious guys this usually takes place on Saturday. A trailer is used as home base and registration also takes place there. Us worker bees put up some shade tarps connected to the trailer that are 20 feet wide and thirty to 50 feet deep. We get to work under these. Then the fun begins. Every car that runs has to visit us under the shades. We have about 60 pages of rules and we check the cars to make sure all the safety stuff meets the rules. This can take from five minutes to a half-hour depending on the car. Logically new cars take longer, because you have to look in every nook and cranny. To add a little extra excitement to the process a driver that has never driven the car before has to get in it with his driving togs, helmet, gloves, etc, on to show that they can actually get out of the thing. When we have them in the car we make sure they know what all the switches and levers do and see if they can reach and work them. When you're going real fast you can't be fumbling around trying to find some switch that could save your life if there was an emergency situation to be dealt with. Then we see how long it takes for them to get out of the car unassisted. Just think what happens when an engine blows when you're doing two centuries and you finally get the thing stopped and the nearest help is a half mile away. I think you see what I mean. After all the inspection stuff is done you have to visit the registration people in the trailer and get your line-up position, arm band, etc, and then you can go back to your pits and start working on the car or have a beer.
Saturday nights can find the hearty soles camped all over the lakebed telling war stories about past racing experiences and again drinking more beverages to keep themselves hydrated. This particular night we also had a meeting with the Coupe and Sedan and GT class folks to iron out rule change suggestions for next year. Sunday morning usually starts early and sometimes that hurts especially if you were up late or got too hydrated (i.e.-intoxicants). The alarm clock sometimes consists of a KB on 70% Nitro singing its tunes. How sweet it is. After a run the lucky ones get to visit us in impound for record certification. This consists of checking the car over to make sure it meets the class requirements body wise. It also means getting the engine measured to make sure it's within the displacement limits for the class. If we're lucky the motor might be sealed from a previous measure and make our jobs easier. If not it's measure time. On push rod motors this involves pulling the valve cover and a couple of push rods so it can be pumped. This is pretty easy. We have this tube about 2" in dia with a puck inside it. We insert a fitting with a hole in it where the spark plug goes then attach a rubber hose to that, which goes to our tube. We then have the competitor crank it over. The air inside the cylinder created when the piston goes up and down forces the puck up the tube via the rubber hose. We read the marks on the tube and multiply it by the number of cylinders and that gives us the basic displacement. We then have to figure out how hot the motor is and factor this in to the number we came up with on the pump and we've got the real displacement. We usually get within a couple of inches of the actual size. On motors with a plug in the center of the bore we have some measuring tools for the bore and stroke that go down the plug hole. This is a straight forward measure job. On everybody's favorite, the flattie, a little work is involved like pulling the head. Then it's a straight measure bore and stroke job. Some of the bike motors in cars have to be measured with oil that's put into the cylinder then cycled over and read in a glass tube. All this stuff takes time. Competitors have until the next lake meet to actually get the motor measured but most want the record now. Another thing we have to check is the gas. In todays world all the new stuff you buy at the gas station has additives in it like ethanol so it's not gas anymore but fuel. We have a special gadget that measures this on the spot. We try and keep apples to apples. There is also paperwork that goes with this. Everything gets written down it seems in triplicate. Oh well, just part of the job. After a meet is over it's not really over for us. All those shades we put up have to be taken down. All the paperwork has to be passed off to the computer guys for use on the web and line up info for the next meet plus next years rule book. The trailer has to go back home. Don't forget that we also go to our club meetings and S.C.T.A. board meetings. If you're on a committee you also get involved. Got to go now. Someone wants their engine measured and some new cars are in build and they want them looked at.

Editorial: Was it Jim Miller's idea, or mine, to go ahead with the biography project? It was probably done by Doc Jeffries and numerous other editors and publishers long before we came up with our version, but so far it has been an overwhelming success. Every day I receive responses from racers, some of whom are land speeders and some who race in other events. The wealth of knowledge has been fantastic and beyond the expectations that we had when we started to send out these requests for your biographies. Maybe the reason is that the SCTA is celebrating its 70th or 71st anniversary and racing on the dry lakes has been going on since around World War I. Whatever the reason, just keeping up with those who have shown an interest and taken the time to write back has kept us busy. Jim Miller also does the same thing for the American Hot Rod Foundation and assists us with advice. Roger Rohrdanz is the photographer who takes the digital and other photographs and puts them into a database. Roger then does the captions, archives the photos, proof reads everything and sends the finished product on to www.hotrodhotline.com, guest columnist and www.landspeedracing.com. I do the editing and some writing, send the revised bio back to the writer for any additions or subtractions and then send the finished product on to Roger. You, the biographee do the writing, using your memories of hot rodding and dry lakes racing as the base for your history. It's an assembly line approach to writing biographies and it seems to work quite well. But this is just a first step process. The reason that we want you to write down your history is to leave it to your family and friends. We will publish your biography and photographs to help in establishing a history of our sport and you are a vital part of that history. We can never be complete, for to capture every detail and fact is nearly impossible, but we can make a big impact in our knowledge of land speed racing, hot rodding and other related forms of motorsports racing. The average length of the biographies seems to be around 1500 words, but there is no right or wrong length. In fact, you can never write enough to satisfy your family and historians. Start now and make an outline of what you did, then add to it every now and then as you remember a special occasion. We want to know the dates, names, places, events of your life and those around you in lakes racing. Don't forget to add the How, Why, When, Where, Who and What to your story. Biographies are great on dates, names and places, but don't forget the personal stories, the funny and sad events that add life to your history. We also want to know what you observed and saw in those events that shaped the story of land speed racing. Be sure to caption your photographs. Buy some of those white, peel-off stickers, then write in ink on the back of the stickers what is in the photos. Peel off the stickers and attach to the back of your photos so that future generations will know who is in the picture. You can never put enough details into your captions or into your biographies. Have a party with your friends and family and have the neatest handwriter do the writing on the stickers while the older members go over the photos and jog their memories as to what, who and when were in the pictures. Make it a fun family affair and caption every photo that you have. Then do an inventory of your possessions and memorabilia and leave behind a record of what the objects were and what they meant to you. A knock off tire lock might mean nothing to your family, until you tell them that you were the crewman on the racecar that was responsible for the tire changes. Then the lock takes on history and becomes a special heirloom. Document everything that is important to you and it will have value to those you love. Forget to document your possessions and they have value only to the junkman.

Please send me the bio form. Dan Warner   Dan: I've sent the guidelines to you today.

I noticed that the biog hit "HotRodHotline" this morning. Thank you very much...now my hat size is really growing! Research on the Indy record of LL Corum is now complete but I have just asked Donald Davidson to check his records for LL's hometown. I suspect that the driver was part of the Corum's that settled on a ranch in Palmdale. But I did make an error in his victories at The Speedway. He won the 1924-500 as a co-driver with Joe Boyer. They drove one of the Dusenberg factory entries. Don't know how I came up with the idea that he won two 500's. I'll pull it all together when I hear from Donald. Bob Falcon Bob: We are receiving lots of biographies and they will first appear in www.hotrodhotline.com, before going to www.landspeedracing.com. It would be very interesting if the Indy 500 Corum is the Muroc Corum.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have been thinking that it is time to document my 33 years of LSR. Please send me the questionnaire so that I can start. Thanks
Mike Manghelli  Mike: The purpose of the project is to leave behind a record for the next generation of land speed racers and for our families. I only wish my dad had written his biography. Below is the questionaire:
a) Where did your family come from; your parents and grandparents and what did they do for a living?
b) Where were you born and where did you grow up? What elementary, junior high and high school did you attend?
c) Did you take any shop classes, while you were in school? Name your friends, especially those interested in racing.
d) Did you join any car clubs or work on or own a car, or a race car, or work as a crewman on a race car while in school?
e) What kind of jobs did you have as a young person while growing up? What kinds of hobbies and interests did you have?
f) What did you do after graduation? Did you join the military? Were you drafted? Did you fight in the war?
g) What kind of racing did you get involved in? Did you own a racecar, drive a racecar or work as a crewman? 
h) Who were some of your friends that were involved in racing with you? Name and describe them.
i) Tell us about your family, your wife and children. Were they involved in racing?
j) What kind of work did you find after you left school? Was it racing related employment?
k) Are you retired from racing? What are you doing today?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi, I am flattered that you ask and I will fill out the form questionnaire, but I don't have much to tell. Regards, Randy Pierce www.goldenhawk.ca.  Randy: It's important to start as soon and as young as you can, then add to it as you grow older. This is a project as much for our families as it is for the other land speed racers and hot rodders. So you can't start early enough.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi folks, word has just been received that a fine obituary of George Kudasch penned by Gary Tefft, with an excellent photo by Ron San Giovanni, has just appeared in the September number of Rod & Custom. Everyone who likes the Ardun will be pleased to see that George, co-designer with Zora Arkus-Duntov, will now receive world-wide recognition via this major, mass-circulation hot rod monthly. Regards to all, Bill Hoddinott

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have written a story that will appear in the September issue of Hot Rod Deluxe on Art Male. I met Art and his wife at the Gas Up last year. I was attracted to his scrapbook with incredible photos from his day at Harper Dry Lake September 1939. After looking through the photographs I inquired if anyone had written his story and no one had. Art along with Wally and a small group would meet at Clifton's Cafeteria in downtown LA to map out plans for an association they would call SCTA. It's an honor to have written this 93 year old hot rodder's story. I have spoken to Chuck Small about having Art be considered for the Hall of Fame.  Dick Martin  Dick: Art and Janice are special friends and they go back a long way. There were originally 7 clubs that met and discussed taking over the land speed racing time trials in November, 1937. Five of the clubs were represented at the very first meeting of incorporation.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

... just added some new photos on the websites and thought they might be interesting to you. Car visitors tour groups recently http://www.oilstick.com/visitors/index.htm. Evelyn Roth Readers: All photographs are courtesy of Evelyn Roth on her website, which is the official site for Mendenhall's Gas Pump Museum, the Gas-UP Party and the Dry Lakes Hall of Fame, in Buellton, California.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just got in from the LA Roadster show and picked up a DRIVE Magazine, and a big Thank You for the coverage. You did a fantastic job as always. Now I'm off to St Paul, Minnesota for Back to the 50's. I leave tomorrow. For Pinstriping. Hot Rod Readers: Hot Rod is his name and he is the producer of several Pinstripers reunions, most notably the one in January at John Buck's Grand National Roadster Show in Pomona, California. You can see the article that he is referring to in an abbreviated version in DRIVE Magazine, or the full story in www.hotrodhotline.com, guest columnist. Pinstriping and painting have been a part of racing since Henry Ford first hired artists to add decorative touches on his early assembly line cars.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thatcher Darwin is right on the money regarding the origin of the Muroc name, but he missed on one point. The Corum family had a member named "L.L." who was a two time winner of The Indianapolis 500. He competed there for many of the teens and twenties. I can give you the exact dates of his wins if you need them. Bob Falcon    Bob: You always have my permission to elaborate and expand on what we know or don't know. You are a major source for us and I would like to know what you know about L.L. Corum and his family. They seemed so isolated out there in the Mojave Desert and yet here they were, right in the middle of auto racing. Send us all that you can in the way of story and photographs. Do you remember their store and garage?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In response to the bio request, I'll submit the following site to click on, www.patwalkey.com/ken. That won't cover the late 1940's at El Mirage, my crash at Bonneville in '73, and going out the 'back door' at El Mirage in '93 to break my back in two places, BUT set a record in B/FS with a speed of 233.216 which stands today as the second oldest record in the class.....or the fact I did the very first announcer at Bonneville and El Mirage....it's been a trip. Ken Ken: I took what you had off the internet and created an article below using most of your words and language, but it's short. I'm including a questionaire for you to fill out and send back to me to add to your bio.

Joe Lencki biography, by Ed Rachanski Senior, is on www.FabulousRacers.com

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Phil Burgess, ace editor of National Dragster, does 'Fernando proud in his latest blog entry with lots'a' quotes from "Those Who Were There" (e.g. Harry Hibler, Tom Jobe, yours truly) plus killer photos (many never seen previously) -- some of which were shot by Senior Dave Wallace and one of which shows my former-star-athlete father running to an accident scene. See http://nhra.com/insidedragster.asp. Dave Wallace Jr

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

See http://www.hotrodhotline.com/feature/guestcolumnists/richardscorner/08bobfalcon/. Hello all, Here's some info on our own Bob Falcon from a recent article. Dr David Scully

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

See http://www.hotrodhotline.com/feature/guestcolumnists/richardscorner/07racersreunion97/. Reading this made my heart smile. My Uncle Jaspar and Grandpa Andy Lopiccolo are gone now, and the memories are gone with them. I would love to see pictures of the Lopiccolo Brothers if anyone has them or news articles. Take care and lotsa of love for racing! Niccole Andrea Lopiccolo Niccole:
The person to contact is Hila Sweet, who knew the Lopiccolo brothers well and raced against them. Her email address is [email protected] and she put on many a Car Racers Reunion over the years and your family was well represented. Perhaps she will have another reunion this year or next. People bring albums and will often share photos with you. Bring a digital camera and takes photos of the people at the reunion and the photos in the album. You will need a digital camera, several disks, a notepad and a pen. Ask permission to remove photos from plastic sleeves if the photos are encased, in order to stop any glare. If you have a tripod, that's better, but if you don't, just snap photos as fast as you can. You can also scan photos with a laptop computer and scanner, but I don't recommend that you take valuable instruments like that to reunions. Don Weaver is having a car racers reunion at Perris in October and you should go to that one. Make up a nametag with large letters saying "Do you have photos of the Lopiccolo brothers," that should get people to come up to you and give you information about your family. You can also look on the internet and see if there are any photos that show up. My newsletter is mostly on land speed racing, but every so often we get news on oval, drag and road course racing. You can also start a phone tree. Get a phone number, call and introduce yourself and ask what that person knew about your family. Write it all down. If they live close by and have photos, you can set up an appointment to go and photograph their pictures, but always go with a friend, that way one of you can photograph while the other writes down captions. After you have talked to one person on the phone, just as you are about to hang up, ask that person if they have a few more phone numbers of people that they know of who are still living who knew your family. This way, if each person you call knows two or three others, you can get quite a bit of information in a short time, because time is not your best friend as these racers are passing away so fast.

450 MPH VW Driver! Nope, not a joke, just a play on words! Tom Burkland is installing a high performance air cooled VW in his cherry little Fiat 850 Spyder roadster and is looking for any oldsters who may have performed this once popular transaxle/engine conversion( think Mosers Little Giant Killer from the early seventies! ). Tom is the second fastest man on earth in a wheel driven car, next to the late Don Vesco, having crossed the Bonneville Salt Flats at speeds topping 450.225 miles per hour ( besides the Fiat/VW, his other car is a dual Hemi engine powered, four wheel drive streamliner! ). If any 36hp Challengers have experience or advice installing a rear VW torsion assembly with transaxle and engine in the little Fiat, I would greatly appreciate your input and will pass the info onto Tom with your permission. For those wishing to see Toms streamliner in live action, he will be doing tune-up runs during the Bonneville Nationals Speed Trials in early August at the salt flats( not a 36hp event!). Full throttle runs will be made following the September World of Speed( and 36hp Challenge ) event at a small five or six car( very fast cars by the way! ) FIA sanctioned time trial. A precautionery rain date is set for mid October. If you would like to see Toms run, go to the USFRA link at www.saltflats.com and scroll down to the site View the Burklands 450 MPH pass, set back and enjoy. While you are their, check out the National 36hp Land Speed Challenge information pages along with all the current salt flat conditions, an aerial view of the salt flats, motel and camping information and great information on what personal items, i.e, sunblock, dark sunglasses, cameras with extra batteries and chips, etc.,to bring to the speed trials to make your visit as a racer or spectator a pleasant and comfortable experience. Again, if you can help Tom with his conversion, please contact me at [email protected]. See you on the salt! Burly Burlile, 435-752 4359 after 7 pm.

The biog turned out great and I have been getting many messages from family and friends. Missed seeing you at the literature fair, yesterday. Thanks again. Bob Falcon Bob: As much as you enjoyed writing it, I enjoyed reading it. We have learned so much in so short a time about those who wrote their biographies. Now go caption those photographs!

“1960's Salt Flat Racer”. Mid to late 1960's Jocko Johnson hand built flathead powered Bonneville Streamliner. Front drive, single rear wheel layout. Very slippery profile. 4130 Chromoly tube construction chassis, very high end and professional workmanship and fabrication is in evidence. Hand formed aluminum body by the legendary Jocko Johnson. Culver City Halibrand quickchange, disc brakes, 8BA flathead block, aluminum Evans heads, '48 Ford sideshift trans case. Engine consists of block, pan, and heads only. No internal components. All body, chassis, engine, and drive mounts, brackets, and bulkheads complete. Front and rear suspension, steering and shift linkage, also complete. As are all tanks, braided brake lines, A & N fittings, etc. This super nostalgic racer was never completed and would require finish body work and updating of safety requirements to compete in current SCTA sanctioned events. Excellent overall condition. Custom built trailer made especially for this Streamliner is included." Anybody know anything about this car? Carl Brunson

To 36hp Challengers. The most recent 36hp Challenge record speeds (as of May 31, 2008) along with "refinements" to the 36hp Challenge guidelines are now posted at www.burlyb.com. The refinements are few but have been brought about by excellent questions posed by Challengers over this past year hoping to keep within the "spirit of the rules." Please review them and contact me should you have any questions. This year is looking good with Bruce Cook already setting a new Stone Stock Record at the ECTA meet in Maxton this past May and Tom Bruch and Gaylon Anderson's new Turbo motor coming back together for a run at the USFRA World of Speed Meet on the Bonneville Salt Flats in September. We also hope to see new Challengers from the Northwest, California and Ireland join us either this year or in 2009 so watch for posts and keep me updated on how your 36hp effort is progressing. Till next visit, see you on the salt. Burly Burlile

Thought you two might enjoy this photo. Pattie actually got to see it first...it is such a great picture! I am working in Ancestry.com on Larry's family and lo and behold one of his distant cousins' wife is working on their history and she has all of Larry's grandparents photos.

Anyway, it was repaired, painted to match the CalLouie and was sold shortly after this photo was taken. Richard, I am still trying to put together bio info and will send it on when I can. Anne Lindsley Anne: My father always told my brother and I that the Lindsley family was one of the staunchest supporters of land speed racing that the SCTA has ever had. There were a number of people whom Dad truly respected; Shinn, Millers, Willis, Adams, Leighton, Tilton, Darwin, Blaisdell, Cook, Snapp, Doty, Higbee, Capanna and many, many more. But the photographs he often showed us were of Jim and Phyllis Lindsley and he would tell us how extremely valuable they were to everything that the SCTA was trying to accomplish. Jim's bio is at www.hotrodhotline.com, guest columnist, and we would welcome more bios on the Lindsley family members.

Dear LSR Collector, I am now able to offer the second release from Monza Models. It is again a land speed record MG, the EXF or EX253 predecessor to the EX255 that formed the subject of their first release. Compared to that, the building quality and finish have greatly improved. and are now to a professional standard. NEW Monza Models n.2 - MG EXF, or EX253, Bonneville 1997. Limited edition of 50, handbuilt in resin, 1/43 scale, delivered in a clear BBR display case. Price - 159.00 euro plus registered airmail shipping (8.50 euro to Europe, 11.50 to USA and Asia, 14.50 to AUS/NZ). PLEASE NOTE: These are handmade models, so delivery may take some time! In August 1997, during the annual SCTA/BNI Speed Trials on the Bonneville Salt Flats, Terry Kilbourne drove this specially prepared MG F to a two-way average speed of 215.240 mph, well over the 200 mph it was designed for. Although played low key till success was achieved, the project was actually drawn by MG-Rover, the car built in Gaydon and the idea was to celebrate 40 years from the 1957 exploit of the last (till then) of the MG record breakers, EX181. In addition, the body color and th white "lightning" stripe on the sides were reminiscent of the most famous and successful of all MGs, Goldie Gardner's EX135. The driver was a Californian Land Rover dealer with good Bonneville experience and licence, which let the team spare the runs that would have necessitated to obtain a licence for a UK driver. The success of this EX-F (or EX253 as it was later dubbed) led to the development of a new car called EX255 which was intended to break the 255 mph record speed set by Phil Hill and Stirling Moss in the late 1950's. Order yours now! HAPPY COLLECTING!-- Ugo Fadini, Via G. Storlato 19, 35132 Padova, Italy, ph/fax +39.049.613755, email [email protected], Interested in Land Speed Records, visit us at http://www.ugofadini.com.
