TEAM WHITE LIGHTNING RACING BEGAN
THEIR PURSUIT OF WORLD LAND SPEED RECORDS IN 2003. INSPIRED BY JOHN MAFFUCCI AND GRAEME “RABBIT” BARTILS’ PASSION
TO GO TO BONNEVILLE THE TEAM WAS CREATED AND OFF THEY WENT.
THEY FOUND THE EAST COAST TIMING ASSOCIATION (ecta-lsr.com)
OFFERED PRELIMINARY EVENTS TO BONNEVILLE. A STANDING ONE-MILE COURSE, IN MAXTON, NC, GAVE THEM A PLACE NOT ONLY TO SET THE
CARS UP FOR BONNEVILLE, BUT TO SET LAND SPEED RECORDS FOR THE STANDING MILE.
RABBIT SET FIVE RECORDS, AND JOHN SET FOUR
RECORDS FOR THE MAXTON MILE IN 2003
THEN THE TWO WENT WEST. THEY SOON LEARNED HOW THE SCTA (SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA TIMING
ASSOCIATION) GUYS WORK TOGETHER TO ACCOMMADATE THE RACERS. ALTHOUGH THE TECH AND STAGING LINES WERE LONG, THEY MADE IT THROUGH
THE WEEKEND WITH FEW PROBLEMS. SEE MORE ON PAGE “BONNEVILLE 2003”
