Here's a great short video of the Steve Pike created Healey Streamliner and Endurance car that were both taken to Bonneville for speed tests in 2009. BTW, Steve also road races a big Healey in Australia. He's visting Portland, Oregon now and plans to stop by to check out #414 and do a little bench racing on Saturday.

Do you think I can get him to fix the fender damage I sustained at Sears Point last month?

Steven Kingsbury, a club member from the Socal Austin-Healey club made these videos. He's not on this forum but posted a request on the email list for people to check out his videos. He needs to prove that there is real audience for Austin-Healey videos to raise interest in doing a television special broadcast about the potentially upcoming Austin-Healey Bonneville speed record.

So everybody, please check out the link to the video posted by Dougie and related videos by airtightproductions on youtube https://www.youtube.com/user/AirTightProductions

Watching this video with Norman and David Nock makes you realize how lucky you are if you had the pleasure to talk with Norman before his passing last year. He was just a prince of a man and still missed in the Healey world. David is the same way and although he had big shoes to fill, has certainly done so and always has the time to speak to you if you call. Think I have said this before but wish they were closer than the west coast as can think of no where else I would rather take my Healey than to British Car Specialists.

Many thanks, dougie, for posting the video.

I'm pretty sure that by now, everybody has seen my "Trip Report" of the 5 days that we spent with the team, both on and off the salt.

For those who have not seen my report, including over 200 pictures, Here is a link.

If you have never been to Bonnevile, it is a Bucket List MUST-DO!
