Speedway Motors

400 hours of machining. Crashing at 200mph. The fastest small block Chevy in the world... 
 
John MacKichan and Tim Schulz knew they weren’t taking on a “normal” project. But in 1988, while driving back to Nebraska from Utah, they realized they could build a better streamliner. Nine months later, they set a record in D/Gas Streamliner. In this episode of What Moves You, a Speedway Motors Podcast, we talk with John & Tim about all the highs and lows of chasing land speed records on the Bonneville Salt Flats.
