In line for another go at Speedweek
This is the tow car for the Dripps & Gibby Racing team, and behind you can see car number 1986, in the E/STR class. Their best time at Speedweek was 163.035 mph [Quarter: 161.588 |Mile 1: 147.625 | Mile 2: 163.935]. Driver Robin Dripps owns the record for the east coast in that class, and was attempting to set the Bonneville record. One of the team members, Lucia, told me that last year they had used a recent model Ford as their tow car. A supporter decided they needed more style in the operation and loaned them the classic Pontiac.
The IR stuff is really fun, because there’s no wrong answer. I can imbue it with as much drama as I like. This one uses a much simpler technique than one in the previous post, with as good effect.
