Buzz Kanter Sets LSR Record

[BaggerDad]

I heard you and Dale Walksler made 5 runs at Maxton and set or beak 5 records this weekend. Is this true?

Either way congrats to you and everyone involved in the bike build and race and share some pix with us here.

Buzz will attempt to increase the top speed tomorrow working with Dale Walksler of Wheels Through Time museum.

The staff of the East Coast Timing Association (ECTA) believe Buzz's 1931 Harley is the oldest vehicle to race to Maxton.

Buzz did increase his time. I was there.

Hey ACME, did I meet you while I was there? Give me a clue. Red carnation in the lapel or something I might remember.

Acme is Brian - one of our two world-class wrenches there.

Here is a photo of me and the bike right before my 3rd and final pass - finally breaking my goal of 75+ mph.

Mike I know you know Brian, dont think he mintioned the name of his shop while you wrere around, this is Brian on the left, don't know how to spell his last name.
Brian help me out here.
For anyone interested, Brian is a walking Encyclopedia on old vintage Harleys. Has a shop in Michigan.
And nice to see him posting in here.

You bet I know Brian. Heck of a nice guy. I never heard the connection between him and Acme. You're right about the wrenching. What a knowledgeable man. I got to see him in action with the bike that wouldn't start because of the cams with too much duration.

Hey Acme. How's the snow?
