Default The Need For Speed

we all like it that's why we race so did Burt Munro

Who?

Film Plot
The life story of New Zealander Burt Munro, who spent years building a 1920 Indian motorcycle -- a bike which helped him set the land-speed world record at Utah's Bonneville Salt Flats in 1967.

if you get the chance watch the The World's Fastest Indian starring Anthony Hopkins

Burt Munro on wiki

we had a guy at work who took home some toluene many years back to do the same as Burt did in this film to clear the land. Lost his eyebrows when he did it though
