Just going through all the pics from Speedweek posted to http://www.bangshift.com, and came across this pic of a Slick Pushtruck, I'll post any others I stumble across:)
I like it! (And I'd drive the wheels off it!)
This link will take you to all the picture galleries bangshift posted over the course of Speedweek.....

Bonneville Speed Week 2021
Re: Bonneville Speed Week 2021
That is a nice truck. It would be pretty cool to go see the land speed races down there. Has anyone here been?

Nic: I booked off time to go back in 2008, talked to a bunch of local lads, couldn't find anyone who ACTUALLY wanted to go.....so I decided to just stay home and work in the garage (built my Tig cart and some other smaller projects:)
It wasn't until Speedweek was all over that I discovered that 2008 was the 60th Anniversary Year, which was a big(er) deal than a normal year:(, which only added salt to the wound!

Y-Block Guy hasn't raced the truck in a while. He's switched to a roadster. I think he went something like 196mph this year, of course, with a Y-Block. I think he got the truck over 150mph. but decided that he needs something with better aero.
