CAPTURED
Aborted Mission
Rocky Robinson pulls the chute on the
Top 1 Ack Attack while coasting through
the speed trap at over 320 mph (note the
flame coming out of the back). It is the
last pass the streamliner would make at
the Top of the World Land Speed Trial in
Bolivia, where the team was attempting
to break the 400 mph barrier.
