Hi Everyone!!

I wanted to let everyone know that progress is being made on the Streamliner that we're gonna take to Bonneville and set a new Land Steam Record. The frame and roll cage are coming along nicely, the front suspension and steering are done, and we're now concentrating on the cockpit area.

You can check out the latest progress photos by going to the website and viewing the progress page....

Thanks for your support and enthusiasm--keep it coming-we'll bring the Record back to the USA!!

Cheers---Chuk Williams

Bring it home Chuck!!!! If I had the time and money I'd be right there with you.
The Brits victory will be short lived im sure, but hey when you think about it the Stanley was a piston engine not a turbine, that has to still count for something right?

Well-Indeed-

When you take into account that the Stanleys set their record--in 1906!!!!--that was still in the horse and buggy days! I cannot imagine how they managed to get tires that would hang together at 120+ MPH!!

The Discovery Channel/Canada tells me that the tentative date for the airing of the USLSR segment will be on May 11th. The segment will be a part of their daily evening show-the "Daily Planet"...which is shown only in Canada. After it airs, we-in the rest of the World-will be able to view it on their website for a limited period of 30 days afterwards...

Hey!!

I just got an update from the Discovery Channel folks---the segment they taped here will be shown on Canadian TV four times---tonight at 7pm and 11 pm EDT, and tomorrow at 9am and 12 noon. The segment will be aired on their show "Daily Planet". I'd really appreciate it if someone viewing it could tape it for me...

As soon as I get it, I'll post the link to view it on the web....


Cheers---Chuk
