EL Mirage Season Finale
Hot rods, sedans, sports cars, streamliners, and motorcycles break a total of 29 records at the Southern California Timing Association (SCTA) season finale at El Mirage dry lake, California.
It has only been a couple weeks since the first SCTA land speed event
of the year and already we’ve had the final. Held over two beautiful
days in November, the conditions were near perfect with a good 1.3-mile
course and light winds compared with the October meet when strong winds
obliterated the event.
The fastest car of the October meeting was the Costella-Yacoucci Waters
Nebulous Theorem III streamliner with a speed of 268.484mph. In November, driver Rick Yacoucci bumped his existing record to 284.732 pretty amazing when you consider that his ’liner is powered by a 250ci small-block Chevy ‘mouse’ motor running on gasoline, albeit turbocharged.
In total, 18 car and 11 motorcycle records were broken during the course
of the two-day event that saw 220 recorded runs. Other records that got
bumped that weekend included Dave Davidson in the 911 Roadster that
upped the Scott, Smith, Leggitt AA/Blown Fuel Roadster record from
243.283mph to a solid 254.507.
Besides all the broken records, the weekend also saw some excitement when cars took an unscheduled spin. For example, Dave Silveira took the
Mariani Street Roadster for a spin going clockwise, then anti-clockwise
until he drove out of it unharmed.
The #352 Coe Family Studebaker with Justin Coe at the wheel went for a
wild, wiggle-ass ride until he finally straightened it out. Finally, Timmy McMaster went through the lights backward at 150mph but was maybe north of 160 when his Y-Block-powered Roadster took leave.
