LATEST AREA NEWS The January meeting also kicked off the 2012 calendar of events with a very well received talk by Ash Mason WSCC member, ex Speed Series contender and Bentley Motors competition project manager. The runs on the ice were amazing... 205 mph on road tyres and no studs. -36 degrees as well!!! We are continuing the theme on the Feb meeting with a talk by David Brown from JCB who was Chief Engineer on the Diesel powered land speed record attempt. The car was driven at speeds in excess of 300 mph by Andy Green. The location was Bonneville salt flats as far different as you can get from the frozen sea off Finland. Hope to see you there.
Charity for 2012 soon to be announced.
