Alan had some friends that were going land speed racing and he and his father wanted to join in the fun. They found some obscure classes and records to chase and starting having a lot of success. Before long, it became a family affair.

Keep Alan coming back he has some good stories. That's the cool thing about these types of events. Your always going to have the big dogs who spend obscene amounts of money and time to be at the very top and the you'll always have room in there somewhere where more normal people can have fun and compete at reasonable prices. Its not all about speed it's about having a good time while doing it. I bet all your motorcycles combined don't equal the amount of money that went into the 700mph car. That's perfectly fine because having fun is more important than going bankrupt.

I always wanted to hold the record for a fully loaded semi. Back in the early 90's, I was going about 100 across Nebraska. When I got passed by a older mack. So I decided I would not let that happen😡 At 118 he was still pulling away. He told me if i cant do 128 ill never pass him. We settled in at 115 or so for about 45 minutes. Every time I drove across I-80. I wonder if they would let 80,000 lbs vehicle race
