Robert George Speedweek 1970

Robert George of Hawthorne, California entered his twin Harley-Davidson powered ride in Class A-AG-3000 at Speedweek in 1970. He was running on a 150.914 mph record and clicked off an amazing run of 166.35 mph. There was only one problem, he couldn’t back it up with a two-way run like Warner Riley did after qualifying at 160.14 mph and then established a new record at 155.578 mph. ©AHRF/Michael Eliasohn Collection (MWC_047)
