After setting new attendance records at the Broken Spoke Saloons in Sturgis, Jay Allen headed to Bonneville to continue his winning streak. Jay Allen and the Broken Spoke Racing Team defeated two past world record speeds this year at the Bonneville Salt Flats. The beginning of the week was spent fine-tuning and dialing in the 2005 S&S 124 cubic inch single cam motor. It also runs Rob Schopf B-2 heads and a Baker 6 speed tranny right out of the box. On Tuesday, Jay Allen surpassed the first Land Speed record of 120.392 to an outstanding 182.011 in the 3000cc APS-PF class. Following up on Thursday, Jay once again gained another Land Speed record by over taking the past record of 142.875 to 184.667 in the 3000cc APS-PF class. The Broken Spoke Racing Team will be heading back to Bonneville to try to reach their goals of breaking the 200mph records. All of this leads up to the much anticipated Bub event at Bonneville where Jay is an ambassador of the sport every year. Keep watching for news of his success.
