KLOCKED: WOMEN WITH HORSEPOWER
ABOUT
The desolate, alien landscape of the Bonneville Salt Flats, barren, gleaming white…in the distance, the faint, high whine of motorcycles shifting through gears…and then three woman stream into view on their roaring machines.Designed as a feature length documentary, Klocked: Women with Horsepower focuses on women motorcycle land speed record holders Laura Klock and her two daughters Erika and Karlee Cobb. Laura raced on the salt for the first time in 2006, and by 2008 her young daughters had joined her. That year the three became the first mother, daughter, daughter trio in land speed racing history to set records at the same time. In 2008 Karlee was also named the youngest to set a record on the Salt, as she was only 14 years old. The trio has been setting records ever since and have been named some of the most influential women in land speed racing.Through moving and candid interviews Klocked: Women with Horsepower takes us into the lives of Laura Klock and Erika and Karlee Cobb revealing the strength of their mother, daughter, daughter relationship, the love and rivalry between two sisters and explores Laura’s non-profit dedicated to helping at risk youth called Helping with Horsepower.
