BBC iplayer "Speed Dreams" - The Fastest Place On Earth.
Bespoke dream machines put together from scratch with months or years of dedication in the sheds of dedicated folks for various brilliant reasons, then taken to Bonneville - AAAH! I love it :-)
Ok - back to it (I'm about a third of the way into this).
Watched this the other night and now awaiting the next part. I didn't realise there were so many classes of machines used. Quite pleased that all the vehicles passed their preliminary checks first time, apart from a pair of leathers that had to be re-stitched with wire.
Part two watched and if anything could epitomize a) it's not about the winning and b) following your dream
then this has to be a contender.
F*cking brilliant stuff and RIP Mike Page.
