LSR Deaths

In doing research for Speed Duel: The Inside Story of the Land Speed Record in the Sixties, I recorded more interviews and collected more photos, audio from the 1960s, old LSR films and other things than could possibly fit in a book. Rather than hoard all this great stuff, I've posted some of it below.

Update 1: I'm continuing to add new photos and other material.

Update 2: I've started making videos. Enjoy!
