Smokin Joe Petrali






Joe Patrali was perhaps one of the greatest motorcycle racers.  In 1937 he set a land speed record on the sands of Daytona Beach.  He reached a speed of 136.183 mph.  That record held until 1948 when Rollie Free rad a Vincent HRD Black Shadow to a speed of 150.313 mph on the Bonneville Salt Flats.
