President's Corner:  
   I'm about to take off for the salt so here's a little story to carry you over. There's another part of being a land speeder that usually never gets talked about in public and that is the road trips. Getting to Bonneville is an adventure in itself, especially in the old days on narrow two-lane roads. Blown tires, lost cars, lost trailers, falling asleep, crashes, you name it, it's happened. Us So-Cal guys had it easy when you consider the guys and gals that come from the Mid-West and parts further east. Here are a few for you. Back in '49 for the first race, to get from L.A. to Wendover you had a couple of options. Go through Vegas or trek up to Bishop and cut across the mountains to Ely. Both were a chore. Think of the tow vehicles back then, usually a passenger car or old pickup. Then think about did you have a trailer or did you flat tow. If you had an old pickup it was usually a Ford with a few tons of parts and some Nitro in the back. If you were extra smart you'd have a water bag hanging on the hood latch or radiator cap. Most of the time these vehicles would become tea-kettles chugging up the hills with a load of water in the radiator and boil. One solution to the problem if you were flat towing was start up the racecar and help push up the hill. Another option that was done by our friends Dave Ratliff, Kay Kimes and Julian Doty was to un-hitch the racer and just drive it. If you were cool you'd kill the ignition before going through a small town and coast through. Sounds like fun, that is, until you ran out of gas in the middle of nowhere. It really happened.
   I knew a guy that got a new set of tires for his trailer and as soon as he got to Barstow they started blowing out. He wound up going through seven tires just on the way up to the salt. Fast Freddie Dannenfeltzer was just going into Las Vegas when he saw a tire and rim take off for parts unknown. He didn't think too much about it until his chase vehicle radioed him and said it was his. They looked for a half an hour and couldn't find it. Oh, well, borrow a few studs from the hubs still intact, bolt on a spare and you're down the road a few hours later. Imagine pulling into a station to get gas. When you jump out of the car you discover that your race car and trailer aren't where they were supposed to be, hooked up to your car. Help! A backtrack found the car still on the trailer and unharmed about 20 miles back down the road. The driver must have been tired. What is more unsettling is when you're descending a steep hill and you look over and see your car and trailer passing you and then crashing off the road. Yep it happened. It's not always just the race cars. A couple of years ago Bob Higbee and Jim Jensen in a rented truck overturned on one of the sharp turns along the way. The back was filled with set-up equipment, programs and t'shirts. It took a few trips to get everything safely delivered so we could start the show. If you're traveling at night you have to be careful going through White Horse Pass. Seems the four-legged critters like to stand on the road to soak-up the daytime heat when it's nice and cold out. When you come around a blind corner at 60 or so you basically take out the front of your car.
   If you're taking the high road from back Michigan way you get to drive through miles of show on icy roads. Ever spun off the road with a trailer leading the way into that ditch on the side of the road? I have, and it's not fun. Another fun thing to do is Banzai runs straight through. If you're lucky to have more than one driver you can take turns sleeping. Days run into nights and when you finally get to Wendover it takes a day to get over the motion sickness. The hardest thing to do is drive straight through by yourself. After o-to-many hours you start seeing little creatures running across the road that aren't there. Just don't try and dodge them, Mr. Ditch is waiting. There is nothing like Mother Nature or road crews to add a little extra excitement. How about taking 40+ hours to go 600 miles. They're always working on the roads in the middle of nowhere and sometimes you just have to wait. Imagine being the dude that has to hold that stop sign when it's a 110 degrees out. No thanks. Or how about a little flash flood that wipes out a road and you have to backtrack hundreds of miles just to be able to go around.
   One of my favorite trips was last year in an almost new truck. You'd be buzzing along at about eighty and the thing would just stop running. You'd coast to a stop and if you were lucky it would re-fire and you'd continue on down the road. The down the road part would sometimes be an hour, ten minutes, or one mile. Cell phones don't work in the middle of nowhere and when it's 2 AM there isn't much traffic. Like I said, fun. Last year a racer got stopped at a state-line crossing because he had race decals on the side of his trailer. The powers that be decided it was a commercial vehicle because the decals were advertising so the authorities wanted log books and such. After about ten hours the idiots came to there senses and let the racers continue. Something to consider along these lines is when you're stopped don't say anything about the 40 gallon drum of nitro in your trailer. Seems it's a hazardous material and you will be branded a terrorist for having it. And what about the 10 cases of your favorite beer stuffed among the parts. Same deal, be mum. The FTC has rules about transporting alcohol across state lines. Seems a racer can't have any fun these days. Other times it really is fun, like stopping in Winnemucca to look at race cars in a now defunct museum, or trying to find old whore-houses to buy t-shirts for souvenirs, or even stopping at places like Ash Springs for the mandatory popcorn and to ogle at alien trinkets. Yes every road trip has a great story and if you're really lucky some will be forgotten to keep you out of hot water. Enjoy the trips.

Editorial:   
   As the baseball manager says, "He's not a great hitter, but he can sure spray 'em to all fields and make the defense run." A phone caller wrote to say, "Doesn't anyone say anything nice about you?" Sure they do and the number who say "great job" outnumber the "my dog could do a better job." If I ran all the pats on the back and the kicks in the shins it would get rather boring after awhile. But once in a while I get something from someone and it makes my century. This person wrote a nice snail mail letter and in it he was very complimentary on the Meb Healey biography that I wrote. It wasn't so much how he phrased his letter as who he was. When I get letters from those I've admired all my life and from those who work so hard to make land speed racing better, then I know that my efforts have been worth it. I also want to say that I admire the work that Jim Miller does for the Society. Who else out there would call me up at 1 PM in the morning to go over an article with me? How does Jim know that I'm up at that hour? Probably because I just emailed him. There are so many out there among our readers/writers that we should thank for their service and volunteerism. I suppose that's why when Gail Phillips emailed to ask for help on Meb Healey, that I couldn't just push this aside or hand it off to someone else. Everyone sort of knows the sacrifice that Meb made for the SCTA/BNI, because he gave his life while serving at Bonneville. We honor Meb every year when the SCTA gives out the Meb Healey Award for outstanding service, though they are not required to actually die while performing their duties. What I found out was that Meb Healey was no stranger to service and that he had actively been serving the SCTA since the early 1940's, before WWII.
   We have a lot of volunteers in land speed racing. We couldn't run the meets without volunteers. Even when the board gives rooms and meals and possibly traveling expenses, it doesn't come close to covering the out of pocket expenses of the board members and other volunteers. Land speed racing is one of those sports that exist because of volunteers and should those wonderful men and women ever stop giving of their time, money and labor, the sport will fade away. On another level, what we do here at the Society of Land Speed Racing Historians is dependent on volunteers. All of you who write in with photographs, stories, emails, histories, biographies and answers to people's questions are making a huge impact in whether we survive or not. Often my editorials are concerned with telling you what you haven't done correctly, or should have done, or it was negative in scope. This editorial is to tell you what you have done right and how much you all mean to the group as a whole. Many of you are off to Bonneville and the next three weeks or more will be sparse. That's alright, since I'm under no demands to produce any amount of copy for the readers. If there is a lot, the newsletter will be long. If there isn't a great deal of research or commentary, the newsletter will be shorter. I can always add book or movie reviews to "fill up the pages."

LSR & Drag racer Chauvin Emmons has passed away. Chauvin was prepping his car for Bonneville when he apparently fell off the trailer and broke his leg; the break caused another complication (infection) which ended his life. His son will drive the car out of respect to his dad. A real innovator and hot rod pioneer.

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

Bob Young - Aug. 5, 2009, reprinted from an article in The Arizona Republic.
Every now and again, a true adventurer comes along, and we lost one over the weekend. Chauvin Emmons, a local racing icon, passed away as a result of complications from a broken femur. He suffered the injury during a fall while working in his garage in Prescott. He was 69. It's sadly ironic that a guy who once walked away - albeit with a broken back - from a crash at more than 300 mph on the Bonneville Salt Flats was felled by a busted leg. "It was a very, very freak thing," his wife, Sharon, said. She found him on the floor of the garage last week after he slipped on a wet spot. "He was lying there with his cigar clamped in his jaw as usual," she said. "He said, 'It hurts like you know what. I've broken my leg.' "When the paramedics got there, they wanted to make sure he hadn't hit his head and one of them asked, 'May I take that cigar out of your mouth?' He had chewed it over pretty good." Over the weekend, complications set in and Emmons was taken off of life support on Saturday.
Emmons had been preparing for another run at Bonneville's Speed Week that begins Saturday near Salt Lake City. His son, who is also named Chauvin, was on his way there Wednesday to make preparations to run the car his father and partners had built. "He's going to attempt it," said Emmons' son-in-law, Terence Murnin. "I think Chauvin would have wanted him to go ahead and do it. He was not one for sentimentality." It was Emmons' hope that his son would join the "200 Miles Per Hour" club at Speed Week. The elder Chauvin had not only joined that club in the 1970s, but was the first to go more than 300 mph in a modified roadster with an unblown engine. That was at Speed Week 10 years ago, when he officially achieved a speed of 302.892 mph in that car. However, near the finish he veered off the 5-mile course and flew over a trench. Had he been able to keep the car under control a bit longer, his timing crew had him headed toward a 318-mph run. According to the Southern California Timing Association, which maintains records for Bonneville, Emmons' speed in 1999 remains a record for that division. He has a record in a smaller engine classification of 269.865 mph that has stood since 1974.
After the crash, he told an Arizona Republic reporter from his Salt Lake City hospital bed, "You bet your pitooty it's worth it." Emmons also said he figured the "Big Guy" might have been trying to tell him something with that crash. "The problem he had in 1999 was that a fitting cracked, spraying fuel on his mask and windshield," Sharon Emmons said. "He was taking his hand off the wheel to wipe it off so he could see, and he went over that trench that drains the brine away. He got off track and hit a big pile of salt and mush." Recently, though, rear-engine roadster divisions were created for Speed Week, and when Emmons heard about it he told his wife, "I hate to tell you, but I'm going back to Bonneville." "He always said he liked to have the engine behind him from his drag-racing days," she said. "He had it built in about a year."
During two earlier runs, the car caught fire, but Emmons believed he had the problem solved and was anticipating the new car also may be capable of exceeding 300 mph. If it does, it will be his son who takes it there. For now, however, the goal is to get the younger Chauvin into the 200 mph club. "We have a friend, Fred Dannenfelzer, who we've known for years," Sharon Emmons said. "He has gone over 300, too, and he's going to be our son's mentor. He won't have his daddy there, but he'll have Fred." Plans for a memorial service are pending, but Sharon Emmons said when it happens, it will take place where her husband most loved to be: in that garage.

I was very excited last week-end to film the final scene of DEUCE OF SPADES. This morning I edited the opening sequence and so I am now officially in the last phase of post production. I hope to have it completed within the next two months and if all goes well, the movie should be ready for release by year end... I just can't wait to share it with all of you!!! FAITH GRANGER, Filmmaker. www.deuceofspadesmovie.com , and www.theparkbenchmovie.com.

If any one knew who Jack Houttes was, it would be Pete Petersen. I was invited over to his place 15 years ago, just after meeting Costella. When Houttes learned that I had D'Angelo's Track T, he did not hesitate to invite me over. The location of Scotts Valley is just before Santa Cruz, which was once a drag strip. Jack Houttes was a police officer who was the flagman at the time, to assure good responsibilities for the racers. At around the same time I got connected with Dick Williams of Poli-Form. Not the same Dick Williams I knew who was the 1949 Grand National Roadster show winner. It was late at night as I recall and I went the wrong way and ran into the Wrigley's chewing gum factory, lost and drenched from the rain. The security guard came out with a brick of chewing gum and just gave it to me with some help to find the right address. Finally I came to Houttes spectacular house with a view. We were bench racing prewar style at first about track roadsters. He told me about some dangerous races and never to wear green with a number 13, as it was a bad combination. He also used to have a Porche that looked just like James Dean's car, and how he would take it to the special Monterey shows. Williams told me that in the past, he and Pete Petersen developed a manifold together for the flatheads and named it "Petersen & Houttes" manifold. Afterwards for some reason they went separate ways. Pete sure made things happen for everyone to enjoy. Jack gave me a copy of the Rod Dust article from November 1, 1950 Volume #1 no.4. I remember him telling me that Ken Fuhrmann printed this article, and he won first place at the drags in the class B section. D'Angelo and Les Joseph were in the race also. I faintly remember that I believe it was Mike Dobrin or Dick Liebfritz that told me where Fuhrmann was. When I told Houttes of this, the world started to change. Vern Hart, who was in charge of Scotts Valley Nostalgia Knights Event coordinator asked me to bring my T in whatever condition it was in, to the town. I told him it was in pieces, but he said that was OK. This was a monthly show on a Thursday if I remember right. They had the show on the Fourth of July in 1996. They made a grand opening for Ken Fuhrmann. I was told by Ken that he was the first guy to make a Plexiglas hood on his hot rod. He also designed the logo 'American Racing Rims.' Quite inspiring to me was his father being an engine caster for Harry Miller. It was great to see Ken get some fame in the papers. I can also remember giving Gene Winfield a copy of the article, because his name was in it as well when he was racing in Southern California, winning in first place. I will give some names of the people that I have got in contact with that were given to me to find connections on the history of the car. Some were good and some were just a no go on my next article. Spencer Simon
Spencer: Is the Pete Petersen you are referring to the ex-owner and founder of Hot Rod magazine?

Sorry...too tired and lame to do that now...my ill health... (name with-held on request)
   Charles: I'm sorry about your ill health and I'll be pulling for you. Work on it a little at a time, 20 minutes say, and then send it to me to edit. When I'm done I'll send it back for more information when you're able to write more. I want your story and all you can tell us, but take it a little at a time. I'll be waiting.
   Readers: When Jim Miller and I bug you for your story and you tell us you're too busy racing, we know we only have a limited time, because one of these days we'll get a similar message from you and realize that you've run out of time to record your history, stories and caption your photographs. It's sad to lose you and doubly sad to lose your history.

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

Thank you for sending this back to me. I wrapped up everything down to the part where you ask for my inputs on all my paintings. I'll make an effort to keep on top of this. I notice your request for "6 representative photos." Are you looking for photos of me? What size (either megabytes, pixels, resolution are you looking for? I'm also working with Faith Granger on developing some posters for her movie. Shall I include a mention of them in my bio somewhere? I have a feeling that the movie will be HUGE. Early last year I completed a project for the xxxxx service, that I really can't release at this time. Will this bio be published before 2010 somewhere, or is it just for a historical collection. If its digital, I suppose I can update it as my career unfolds, correct. Tom Fritz
Tom: This is a good series of questions for our readers as well as individuals doing their biography. Currently I have 20 bios in various states, some nearly complete and others that have just begun. The photos should be something that can be sent digitally by computers. They go with the bios and are stored at www.hotrodhotline.com, guest columnist/Richard Parks. Jack and Mary Ann Lawford give us space there to archive our bios, photos and stories. The public can log on any time and read the bios, book and movie reviews and other articles. From time to time I pull one of the stories or bios off www.hotrodhotline.com and post it to the weekly the Society of Land Speed Racing Historians newsletter. You can add to your bios, especially if you are young and more life experiences arise in your life. The bio project is simply a way to archive the history of people for the future. It's a lot of work, but it has also brought Jim Miller, Roger Rohrdanz and myself a great deal of satisfaction and we hope for those who log in and read the articles posted on the websites. I'm glad that you are helping Faith Granger to finish her hot rod movie and we all hope to see the movie and buy several copies for X-mas presents for our land speed racing friends and family. Now the reason that I have been urging you to write your bio and to tell us about your paintings is this; in your own way you are a historian. To paint your photos you have to have more than just a photograph of the past. It is the research that you do that makes your paintings and other art work so special. What you know is vitally important to historians, and conversely, what we discover is available to you so that you will continue to paint and keep our history alive. Artists and photographers keep the visual history alive, just as writers and journalists keep the facts alive. Finally, just because we are going to put your bio in our archives, we are still going to encourage you to continue to work on it and increase it, because your family deserves to know your history as much as anyone else.

I will be attending my first Speed Week at Bonneville next week. We are really excited (a good friend is going for his first time also). We are traveling with a group that includes Vern Tardel from the Santa Rosa and other veterans from the North Bay and S.F. Bay area leaving on Thursday, August 6, 2009 in the morning and arriving in Austin, Nevada for the BBQ Thursday evening. Then on to Wendover and the salt flats for the good stuff. I plan to take a ton of photos of our journey and the racing which I will be happy to share with you at SLSRH. Bob Choisser Vacaville, CA.
   Bob: If you would write a story of your first time to the Salt, I will be glad to publish it in the newsletter.

I have been working with Ken Berg to establish some form of repository for American auto racing history and memorabilia. My vision is some sort of registry of collectors and museums so that at least the world will know who has what. I have always appreciated your kindness and generosity to some of my old heroes like Danny Oakes and Rodger Ward. I remember you bringing them to several Legends reunions. All the best, Roy C. Morris
   Roy: The historical biography project is on-going and you can add to it at any time. I talked to Ken Berg and we are both working to establish contact with a group that can archive, restore and exhibit hot rodding and auto racing memorabilia and history. Ken has an extensive collection on Miller, Offenhauser, Drake and Meyer history and I've listed an index in the newsletter of Ken's interviews with significant racing pioneers. Danny and Rodger are missed by us all. They were legends in auto racing.

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

I just saw this review of our book (Harrell Engines & Racing Equipment) on www.amazon.com and thought I would share it with you. It was clearly written by someone who was there, then.  Roger H. Harrell
Roger: I couldn't find SoCal Woodworker, but if he makes himself known to us I will offer him more space in the SLSRH newsletter to expound on his book review. You can never have too many reviewers.
Readers: Here is the book review.
   A Nostalgic Look Back, June 15, 2009. By B. "SoCal Woodworker" (Southern California)  "The Harrell Engines book is a nostalgic look back on the pioneers of the sport of racing. This book starts with the "roots" of racing and how drag racing grew. The book explains the connection between the Harrell brothers and the young racers. The magic came with their engine building. The "need for speed" was the mantra of every racer that "hung out" at the Harrell shop where the exchange of ideas and experiments would take place. In so many words this shop-talk was the meeting of the "hot rod" minds. The book gave me a blizzard of memories. The Harrell brothers were in a sense true alchemists when it came to racing engines. They like so many of the drag racing pioneers, took the dream of drag racing to a whole new level and made the sport of drag racing the spectacle it is today. I highly recommend this book!"

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

In just over one year, beginning in 2011, the mandatory helmet requirements will be updated. If you do not currently have a Snell approved helmet to race in the 36hp Challenge, I would recommend you purchase (or borrow) a Snell 2005 or newer approved helmet (Current rules thorough 2010 require Snell 2000 or newer). The Snell 2005 helmet becomes mandatory on January 1, 2011 and must be full face with a visor over the face opening. Please keep this in mind if buying or borrowing a helmet for the Challenge.
Recently we received an email that we thought would never come. The family of Johnannes (Jon) Gosvig contacted me after discovering his name at the 36hp Challenge website www.burlyb.com by chance. Jon was the partner of Mel Ellis and drove their 55 oval when it set the original DSS record at Bonneville in 1962. Mel had lost touch with Jon after Jon relocated to Texas in the mid-seventies. We were informed Jon passed away only recently and that he was unaware of the effort by the 36hp Challengers to eclipse the record he and Mel set so many years ago. It would have been great had Jon been able to join us along with all the other early 36hp racers. I have promised to keep the family informed on Challenge happenings and thank them for seeking us out. Mel was also able to supply them with some photos of Jon back in his racing days on the salt and at the drags which I know they will treasure.
September 16th to the 19th will be this years World of Speed event on the Bonneville Salt Flats and it looks like we will have a record number of 36hp Challenge racers and spectators. Currently there are teams from California (3), Utah and Iowa that have announced their intent to race. Information on motels, what to bring to make your visit special and site overviews and entry information are available at links on www.saltflats.com. Utah has enjoyed a large amount of rain on the salt flats this year and the SCTA-BNI personnel are currently performing the initial prep on of the race courses as this is being written. Reports indicate the conditions are ideal for a great racing surface for the '09 events. Since our beginning in 2005, the 36hp Challenge has received great magazine support from Ultra VW, VolksWorld (United Kingdom), Super VW (France) and VW Magazine Australia (Australia) as well as our own Hot VW's and Good Guys here in the U.S. This past month, the August 2009 issue, Hot VW's magazine presented a three page history on the 36hp Challenge that I hope you will all seek out and read. I hope it will give you a sense of history on the Challenge.
In non 36hp land speed racing news, I would like to make you aware of a phenomenal speed set by a water-cooled VW at the March '09 event at the Texas Mile in Goliad, Texas. Jeremy Freedman drove his turbocharged 1997 Volkswagen VR6 powered front wheel drive GTi to a top speed of 193.444 miles per hour. This speed makes Jeremy's street drivable and driven GTi the fourth fastest land speed Volkswagen EVER! To my knowledge, his was the first VW to ever compete at Goliad and he did the marque proud. Now, if we can just get our mid-west 36hp Challengers to join Jeremy and his VW at the Texas Mile, we will be rockin' and rollin' around the U.S. The 36hp Challenge is looking great for '09. I look forward to being on the salt in September and getting to know those folks I have not yet had the opportunity to meet. Come join us even if you cannot compete this year. Your support will be welcomed and you will have a unique and special time on the Bonneville Salt Flats. Burly Burlile

Earlier this week I was in a tire shop here in Riverside. I noticed a "vintage" picture on the wall of a neat looking streamliner/roadster. The caption said "'Modified Cragar' 100.00 M.P.H. Harper Dry Lake." There was no date or other information. The owner of the picture, Dave Kuma, said he purchased it at a swap meet years ago. The seller at the swap meet had purchased it at a swap meet or garage sale and had no other information other than it was an enlargement of an original. The picture is matted and framed in a nice old wood frame. I did not recognize the car but started a www.Google.com image search and in fairly short order recognized the car as possibly George Rybsch's "Skipit" Streamliner due to the distinctive side pipes, tail fin and hubcaps. I sent a picture of what I found to Jim Miller. In short order, Jim worked his magic and confirmed the car was "Skipit" and to my amazement identified the custom hubcaps and that they were designed and produced by George DuVall. Now, armed with that information, I did some more investigation on my end, and found some info in the SoCal Speed Shop book written by Mark Christensen, that identified the DuVall hubcaps as his "Hollywood" hubcaps. More info about some of DuVall's work is on page 23 of the aforementioned book. Oh, I failed to mention, Dave, the current owner of the picture we're investigating bought the picture because he liked the hubcaps. He is a collector of vintage "stuff" and had been trying for several years to find out what they were and if available.
   I took all this information back to Dave. He was kind of amazed that we came up with all the info we did and as fast as we did. I asked his permission to borrow his framed picture so I could scan it and send it to Jim for his historical archives AND for positive identification. I had to carefully remove the old backing from the frame so I could access the picture to scan it. "Disassembly and reassembly" all went well and I got a great scanned image. Unfortunately, there was no additional information on the back of the picture. We knew the car was running under the Pacemakers Club banner as posted on the side of the car and on the coveralls the driver was wearing. I sent the picture off to Jim and he confirmed it is the Rybsch "Skipit" Streamliner. Jim was able to date the picture as probably a May 1940 meet at Harper and it ran 109.22mph. He also provided names of several other Pacemakers in the Club then, including Stu Hilborn. I've seen several pictures of this car in magazines and books but always with its light body color and distinctive flame paint job, by some accounts, the first of its kind. In the picture I scanned the car is dark in color and has no flames. File of the picture I scanned is attached. There is more detail to this story but these are the highlights. Amazing what a little detective work can turn up! Many, many thanks to Jim Miller for his help. He never ceases to amaze me with the amount and detail of the information he can come up with! Jerry Cornelison, Road Runners - SCTA. See http://www.ussarcherfish.com/roadrunners.

Sorry I've been remiss in finishing my bio; it's been a busy summer! I spent the better part of the month of June on a big cross country adventure in a '32 Ford Flathead powered roadster a friend and I resurrected a couple years ago after sitting in storage for over 40 years! We went out to the LA Roadster show to try to find the previous owner, George Kirk. A friend of ours bought the car from George in Santa Monica in 1959 then brought it back to Ohio. Three local guys went out to California in '57, '59 and '61 each time bringing back a roadster- two '32s and one Model A roadster pick up. If you would like to read about my adventure I posted it all on the HAMB (remember, I'm ChevyGirlRox on there), you can read about it here:

I will work on completing my bio so we can get it up. I've been doing some
research about Ohio drag racing and woman racers of the east coast. Trying to talk to/interview folks as well as copy/scan as many old time photos as possible. It was nice hearing from you, take care, and talk to you soon again! Megan Boyd
Megan: Keep us up to date on your projects and the Ohio racing scene. I was at the L. A. Roadster Show too.

I am looking for the following items for my Hall of Fame Museum, which will open late this year in Auburn, Indiana. I need information on anything speed equipment or cars built by Grancor Automotive Specialists (Granatelli Corporation) like Ford Flathead motors, heads, manifolds, etc. Also, looking for any racecars I owned or built, including Indy cars, street rods, Bonneville cars or a Fordillac. I would like to have any information on the whereabouts of any of the above. I will consider a loan, a donation or I will purchase the items. No matter what, I would like to know what's out there. Contact Andy at [email protected]. Thank you. Andy Granatelli

I'm working on an article about stock car road racing in Southern California during the 1950's. There were two races at Paramount and one at another location, I think perhaps Pomona. I have dates on the two Paramount's, but not the other, also promoted by JC Agajanian, I think. Do you have any info? Do you have any photos? Thanks, Art Evans, Phone 310-489-5330.

I haven't forgotten your request for information about Jimmie Jackson. Have done some research but need to have a few things verified by Donald Davidson. I have his full Indy driving record but cannot recall his DOD and COD but I know Donald will have those. After he ended his driving career he was a fixture at IMS working as a representative for an after market auto parts manufacturer. He was a former riding mechanic in the two man cars. Bob Falcon
   Bob: If he was a riding mechanic, that means he raced prior to the late 1930's.

I am looking for help with a project. I need a central location to host a reunion for the founding drag racers, land speed and sprint car guys. If I can get a venue I can establish a tentative date. Jim Miller and I have tossed around a few novel locations but we are hoping someone might step forward with a better idea. The venue must be free and hopefully it could get done later this years, perhaps in the next couple of months. As a few of you know, I was the National Director of Microsoft's X Box Cup Racing Series. I am volunteering my time and I will help pay for the
catering if need be. Why because these guys are getting older and we continue to procrastinate about getting out and interviewing them. Jim has offered his video camera and I own a share in a small production company that I will also offer their services for free so we can get these guys on tape before the moments lost. I am not doing this for profit. I will tape share with whomever wants copies so long as they provide the DVD or tape they want it transferred to, if you are in production you will be expected to pay scale for the media and the proceeds will be donated to charity. Plan on it being an all day affair and I will get with some of my friends who would like to bring their old racers out to this event and hopefully the venue that is made available to us has some type of auto museum, preferably with an elevator or minimal stairs. I think Ernie might like to bring the Spurgin car, of course the Belond roadster will be there and most likely I can talk Mike Degles into driving the Stan Hartwick replica. I am sure I can put together a couple dozen roadsters to show up if we can't book a venue. I am also working with a couple of publishers who could supply books at a discounted rate so these guys can pass them around and sign them for each other and those in attendance that might want one. It is possible we could offer copies of these books for sale and use the proceeds to defer off some costs for a door prize or something else to make the event a bit more special. The planning is obviously in its formative stages but I do want to proceed quickly if the interest is there. Comments are welcome and help is needed. I can be emailed at [email protected].  Michael Brennan

I received a phone call last evening from Jack Mickelson confirming that my son's roadster was, at one time, his. Due to his advanced age he could not remember when he bought the roadster (sometime in the mid 1940s), but he did confirm that he sold it to the automotive writer Don Francisco. I thank you for your forum that allowed us to put another piece of the puzzle together on this historic vehicle. Jack also confirmed that the deuce was wrecked by Don prior to selling it to Gene Scott of Antique Auto Parts. John & Chris Julis, Riverside, CA

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

I noticed the post regarding the Jack Mickelson roadster. I spoke with someone's father about a car they believed was Jack's and I gave that person Jack's mailing address. I spoke with Jack this evening and he told me that he sold his roadster to Don Francisco and a neat side note was that your dad, Wally Parks, drove Don over to Jack's place to pick it up in your dad's A V8 roadster. The man told me his son was given Jack's roadster by Gene Scott, founder of Antique Ford Parts. He had said Gene Scott had bought it from Don Francisco and it had been sitting at Antique Ford Parts for years and that it was turned into a street rod by Roy Brizio, or something along those lines. I made a call to Jaime Gonzalez at Evans Speed Equipment and had him ask Gene Ohly, who was at that time the owner of Evans Speed Equipment and Ohly was a long time friend of Scott's who remembers Scott opening his doors for the first time. Ohly's Evans Speed Equipment race cars were sponsored by Antique Ford Parts and Ohly possesses an excellent memory. Gene Ohly said that he never saw the Jack Mickelson roadster at Antique
Ford Parts and if he had he would have surely remembered one of the fastest '32 roadster to ever come out of Evans Speed Equipment.
Especially since it would have had a special interest to him since he was the owner of Evans' at the time.
   There are a couple of unsubstantiated stories of the roadster. Unsubstantiated only because they have to do with a phone call Jack received regarding the location of a few pieces of the car. He has told two of us, that I know of, about how he built the car and why those items are unique to his car and a few other Gophers members' cars'. A quick inspection of those items would make a good case for it being his missing roadster. To date, I have heard 3 different stories regarding the whereabouts of Jack's roadster but this is the most compelling: Jack told Jerry Stohler and I that he was contacted by one of the former owners of his roadster and that owner had recently sold the car and he wanted to know if Jack was interested in having back the SCTA timing tag from the dash of his car. Jack was very excited about this because it was the fastest tag he had ever received with the roadster. Jack didn't get back in touch with the gentleman in time and the tag disappeared until about a year and a half ago when it resurfaced in an Ebay auction. It sold for around $1700. We are not sure if this was the tag Jack was offered to come and get or one of the few tags he purchased from the SCTA. Note: Jack lent his collection of photos and his roadster's SCTA trophy to a gentleman, I use the word loosely here, to have copies made and the man has had them in his possession since October 2005 when he wrote Jack a letter saying he wasn't returning the items. 
   Jack's feeling are still very hurt and it makes me sick to think these things happen in our hobby. It is disgusting to steal from the very people someone claims to admire. So, wherever Jack's '32 happens to be it is most likely missing its correct timing tag. Jack is concerned that someone might try to replicate his old car and add the original tag that was sold on Ebay to the replica and attempt to claim it as an authentic.
These are simple facts that are easily verified and I'm not offering any opinion as to whether or not someone's car is or isn't what it claims to be. No one who could offer an educated opinion has seen Jack's roadster yet so time will tell but the clock is ticking if you are looking to build accepted knowledge you had better get it in front of some old timers who could offer their opinions, be prepared for criticism though. As the owner of a historic vehicle, the Sandy Belond pre-war dry lakes roadster, I am fully aware of the task at hand when one is in the process of sourcing provenance or accepted knowledge. I'll offer everyone a glimpse of what I've been through. I knew nothing about Sandy Belond or Belond Headers or Equa-Flow and even less about Sandy's Muffler Shop and Sam Hanks. You see I didn't realize how influential Sandy and Sam were. I bought the roadster because I liked it and the elderly man I purchased it from really, really wanted me to have it. So to me it didn't matter who it belonged to but I promised the gentleman that I wouldn't sell it to make a profit on it and I would educate people about Sandy Belond, because he thought it was unfortunate that he had become forgotten. To try and make a long story short; initially when asked about the roadster I would say something like, "It belonged to Sandy Belond." Generally most people just wanted to see what a real pre-war dry lakes racer looked like, some told me about Belond, other were as clueless as I.
   And then I began to meet the skeptics, there are those that want to be confrontational and would quiz me about the most obscure things; in hind-sight most had no idea what they were talking about. At that point I took the time to do the research and I made myself well versed because you will need to dissect the skeptic with wit and hard-line facts pertaining to not only the vehicle but what was going on in the world at the time the car was prevalent. You must know how it was built, why something was done in a particular manner or why specific materials were used, to name a few of the joining concepts that underline early hot rodding. It is a huge responsibility to own what many consider to be a piece of American history. If you let the skeptics defraud that piece of history because you have not done your due diligence it will be a poor reflection on your personal reputation and it will be a huge hole to dig the car's reputation out of, you do not want people leaving a conversation with you feeling they have been lied to and the car is a fake. I have 1000's of hours invested in learning about two men's lives I never knew and I find myself spending just about every waking moment figuring out new ways of reaching anyone who may have known Sandy, Sam, a relative, an employee, a fellow racer, a club member and even neighbors. I've placed ads with pictures of the car, taken it to gatherings where the old racers get together. You'll spend more time chasing down dead end leads then positive leads but that is the nature of the job. You should realize that there will come a point at which time you find you may not want to hear everything that people tell you because it sends you down another path and that one might lead you to something unexplainable.
   My suggestion is to document everything, things that seem insignificant usually aren't you just don't know how they fit yet, because if it is authentic everything valid will take care of itself. It may not make sense to you at the time but somehow, someway the truth reveals itself. In the case of the Belond, It didn't possess provenance, therefore I had to work toward accepted knowledge I still read and study everything I can related to Belond and Hanks, then I cross reference everything hoping it all still fits and finally every opportunity I get to place it with Sandy's peers I do so. I always think I know every inch of that roadster and these guys never cease to amaze me with what they know about it. Case in point, one of the dry lakes founders was a friendly rival of Sandy's and he just happened to know where Sandy, and the rest of the Idlers, stamped an identifying mark in the sub channels of their roadsters. He walked right up to the car and pointed it out; none of us had even noticed it before. Having Sandy's mark in the roadster's sub-channel pretty much laid to rest any doubt about authenticity. The mark wasn't in a photo or written about anywhere else it was supposed to be hidden just in case the car was stolen. 70 years later those markings became pretty important and I would have never found out what they meant by reading a period magazine or studying pictures of the car. Every time I get the opportunity to put the roadster in front of a pre-war lakes guy I jump at the chance and make myself available. I ask them general questions, you don't want to guide them to an answer because they usually have a better one anyway and if you let them go the stories are endless and that is where you will find what you're looking for. Best wishes for a successful journey hunting down your roadster's history. Sincerely, Michael Brennan
   Michael: Have you talked to Alice Hanks, Sam's widow? Also, maybe Bob Falcon can give you some assistance.

Thanks for contacting me. I will make sure you receive monthly updates of Aussie Invader 5R project. I am not sure if you have visited our website www.aussieinvader.com, we have a lot of information about the car and Rosco, the driver, his racing career and his past LSR cars. For information about LSR racing in Australia, please visit www.dlra.org.au. Kind regards, Mark Read
Mark: Yes, I have seen the website. The Society of Land Speed Racing Historians newsletter is posted to www.landspeedracing.com. Sometimes I will copy and paste part or an entire website into the newsletter, but more often I will simply give the link. We are concerned with history as our priority, but we do publish current land speeding and hot rodding events. We have readers all over the world and since we have no paid staff, it is the reader/member who provides the news, current and ancient. I just received Rosco's biography and I think it was one of the hardest things anyone ever made him do. We also want to get all the rest of the land speed racing community in Australia and New Zealand to start on their bios, even the young people. And we want you all to caption your photographs, because an uncaptioned photo is a nearly worthless one. Thanks for the notices and keep us informed, past, present and future land speeding.

The following email was sent to the SLSRH by Burly Burlile. "Just had Darrell Vittone here for 3 days at yearly Re-union and he had Dry Lakes image for me of rare early Pre Inch Pincher at El-Mo Dry Lake, use it as you wish, the Dude was a salesman at Econo." Glenn Millstok
Burlile then asks the following:
"I am hoping you might be able to offer some guidance. Since you started gathering LSR documentation, have you been able to accumulate a file on speed results at the various meets over the years? As you can see by the attached photo I have just received a photo of the early famous racing VW, the Inch Pincher, and showing it competing at an El Mirage meet. The supplier of the photo indicates it was possibly taken in the early spring of 1963. Any speed it attained would be of importance for the Volkswagen land speed history I maintain in general and of particular importance to the 36hp Challenge history. If you know where I could access or who I might contact to obtain the event speed results, it would be very much appreciated." Thanx, Burly Burlile
Burly: I don't have any records, but Jim Miller might, or could possibly tell you where you could find the information if it still exists. Check the masthead for Jim's phone number and give him a call, or see him in person at SpeedWeek.

The third guy from the left in the white shirt and wearing the white cloth helmet appears to be a former Culver City neighbor, Dave West. I know Dave worked for the "Skip's" dad at his shop and was involved building this car. Dave served in the Navy during WW2 as an aviation machinist mate (aircraft mechanic) on Iwo Jima where he met a Marine aircraft mechanic named "Swede" Lindskog, a race car driver of note on the west coast. As the war was winding down, Swede needed to hone his race car driving skills, so he and Dave built a Midget Race Car, powered by a Japanese motorcycle engine. Swede wrote Dave a letter of introduction to John Balch telling him of Dave's race car fabrication and maintenance skills and Balch hired him to attend to his Midgets. Dave was instrumental in getting Jim Travers involved in oval racing as his helper. That was Travers introduction to the racing big time regardless of whatever has been written about his career. I am still in touch with Dave's younger brother Wayne who was a hot rod buddy of mine. Dave taught me a lot about fabrication. I tell all that he taught me how to THINK. Bob Falcon
   Bob: Lindskog passed away, but what happened to Wayne and Dave West and Jim Travers?
