Burnout before John Wayland's last run of the day
I just got back today from a weekend spent in Portland and nearby Woodburn, Oregon with EV racing friends John Wayland, Roderick Wilde, and a gaggle of fun and interesting folks who are into EVs that go fast. As always, this trip to Woodburn was a blast. I have tons of video and images to post, and I’ll make another entry here when I’ve done so. But for now, check out this tidbit - a clip showing Tim Brehm’s last run of the day in John Wayland’s White Zombie, in which he had a “plasma event” during the burnout (notice the series of sharp “bangs” and white hot bits of brush mount falling out) but on the damaged motor still managed a 12.65 quarter mile at over 104 miles per hour.
