    Abortion

    It would seem appropriate that the abortion issue should be debated within this thread.

        Re: Shuda' Gone For Mach 1

        Chuck-- We did indeed set a record. I don't know what happened to the URLs on this board, but the web-site is http://member.aol.com/olgeezr/cars.html The brief paragraph on The Blue Flame is about half-way down the page. We had a true, two-way speed of 622.407 mph -- and this with a sick engine. But we beat Breedlove, and our design patent was copied by Bill Fredericks for the Bud car a few years later.

        I was being facetious about rocket science -- but it was indeed rocket-powered.

        And we had a small hope for MACH 1 -- I feel that the car, refurbished, could have done it. But, speed did not sell in the early '70s; we could not get financing to go back and set the record higher. Geezer.

          GRITS

          Well kiss my grits! We are indeed in the midst of greatness. Ol Geezer my hat's off to you! What a thrill it must have been to run that sled on the salt flat! Congratulations!

          P.S. Did the rocket use a ballast resistor?
