CastAlum Record Breakers
Over a period of 6 months three of our employees:
Karl Meredith – Production Manager
Nick Spalding – Logistics Supervisor
Steve Roberts – Toolroom Supervisor
Rebuilt from the “wheels up” 2 BSA Bantam 125cc motor cycles. Their purpose – to attempt to break the world land speed records in their class at Bonneville Salt Flats. The outcome – 3 world records on their vintage machines that went progressively faster from the heats to the final runs.
Described by all 3 participants as a “great adventure” the wonderful end result paid tribute to their hard work, engineering skills and ambition.
