The US$300 would have netted Burt around NZ150 pound in 1962 - not a huge amount of money - maybe 8 weeks wage for a tradesman in 1962.Originally posted by taylov
Burt's first trip to Bonneville captured a 162.149 mph class record and the racers' collection for him which features in the film netted over $300 - a considerable sum of money in 1962.
I read on the landracing.com website that a recent change in the motorcycle classes at Bonneville means than one of Burt's old records will now stand forever.
