Veda set the Full Fendered Roadster record at 104.40 mph and later upped that to 114.24 in 1937. She ran 131-plus mph at the wheel of the Taylor-Blair modified and became the first woman to race in the SCTA.

Veda published the SCTA News, and later started her own newsletter as a means of communicating with other racers; however, it wasn't long after its inception that WWII began and many of the racers found themselves in the military and on their way overseas. To keep spirits up, Veda distributed her publication to more than 750 service men all around the world for free and personally corresponded with hundreds as well.

Karl was a fortunate guy to land a wife this good looking, a magazine phenomenon, and a land speed racer.

And an owner who digs Chevys, Fords, and Mopars (yeah, I still need to catch a shot of him in a Mopar... it'll happen)

Where the guys are happy

The prices are on the wall

The floor is full of Hi-Po parts

And you'll find old cool stuff

And new cool stuff

Proof of award winning recognition,

and racing

Where the service signs are hanging around ( I misplaced the Chevy sign photo)

And they specialize in something

..... but work on everything

Big blocks of all varieties are found... 427 Chevs, 528 Hemis

and they work on race cars, muscle cars, and off roaders too

Some new foriegn cars, and old American's

And new econo-boxes to old Bufords

Where safety goes in, before the parts break out... the driveshaft in the above photo, bottom left area... twisted itself in half... between the TWO driveshaft loops. And it made all the difference when that driveshaft let go and tried to relocate to the drivers area.
