Visit the New Web Site dedeicated to Tyrone Malone - http://tyronemalone.net / VIDEO CLIPS FROM THE 1970s & 1980s of TYRONE MALONES SUPER BOSS CUSTOM KENWORTH DIESEL DRAG RACING TRUCK. WHICH HE MADE FAMOUS BY RACING AND SETTING LAND SPEED RECORDS FOR A DIESEL TRUCK BACK THEN, THIS VIDEO HAS BURNOFFS AND HIM DOING 180 DEGREE FLIPS ! When last we met Tyrone Malone, back in 1969, his name was Jerry Malone, and he was charging 35? a head to see his dead 38-foot whale, Little Irvy, which was lying frozen in a semi-trailer. But Jerry kept noticing that a great many people, whether or not they sprang for the 35?, were every bit as enamored of Old Blue, the truck in which Little Irvy lay in state, as they were of the star whale itself. And so Jerry put on his thinking cap and became Tyrone Malone, Daredevil Diesel Driver, and he got very heavy into trucks. He has set the world land speed record for trucks at Bonneville Salt Flats (114.896); he has brought us truck drag racing, organizing events all over America and in Europe and Australia; and he has assembled the classiest collection of trucks ever seen on wheels ! Since 1970 Malone has been adding trucks to what now constitutes a fleet. First he got the Boss Truck of America and the Mama Truck, which carries the Boss Truck along the highways and byways of the U.S. of A. Then along came the Super Boss and the Papa Truck, and then the Bandag Bandit and the Hideout Truck, and when you also take into consideration Old Blue itself, plus the Smokey Bear Corvette and miscellaneous support vehicles, you are talking about a million dollars' worth of rolling stock, easy. A million dollars in trucks—and trucks can't play out options. Plus there are the toy trucks, the build-'em-your-self model trucks and all those truckin' trinkets. "Without the Tyrone Malone T shirts, the hats, the puzzles, and all that, I'd be a whole truck behind right now," Malone says. And just you wait till he puts the Truck Hall of Fame together. beat Waltzing Matilda, the great jet truck, Down Under," Malone says. "I got 11,000 column inches in European newspapers. I made the 6 o'clock and the 10 o'clock news 110 times last year. /// See the Video Interview with former Tyrone Malone Driver "Ken Harris" in OVERDRIVE MAGAZINE - Video Link ----} http://truckingvideos.randallreillycms.com/kaltura/api_v3/web/im-video/Trucke... -/- Wanna make a small Tribute Donation of $1.00 to $5.00 towards this Video Click here using PAYPAL -----} https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_donations&business=YZR59VFUGRV...

Hi all,

The Super Boss was brought to Australia to try and beat Ray Kernaghan's Waltzing Matilda - guess what happened??? Super Boss failed dismally - Waltzing Matilda just ate it for breakfast!

Does anyone know where there is footage of Waltzing Matilda anywhere???
