To Use Brand New Jet Car On The Utah Salt Flats

London.

A wealthy American, I hear, is planning on assault on the

world's land speed record with a brand – new jet car. He is tough, cheerful Bob Wilke from Milwaukee, who is

well-known on the European race circuits. Says Wilke: "I am ready to go. It all depends on the Boeing Aircraft Company, I am negotiating with them for one of thoir big jot engines. They wanted $42,000 for one, but I have talked them down to $11,000. "If they come down some more, I will have a brand new car ready to go

in April on the Utah Salt Flats."

Wilke is planning an extremely light weight car built round the jet. But, he says, "it will go so fast we shall have to fit powerful brakes and airbrakes."
