		On an otherwise quiet Sunday enthusiasts gather in the North Alabama hamlet of Oakville, birthplace of Jesse Owens, to witness the unveiling of a roadside historical marker to the runner known as the “Buckeye Bullet.”
		Buckeye Bullet because, from the age of nine years old, Jesse Owens grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, eventually attending Ohio State -- far from the Lawrence County Seat of Moulton, Alabama, where, at the local McDonald's, farmers in bib overalls order Big Macs, hold everything minus cheese and ketchup.
		In Oakville, residents, led by Owens's cousin Marvin Fitzgerald, quietly began clearing a vacant half-acre lot next to the Methodist church and Masonic Lodge with intentions of adopting an obelisk in honor of the Buckeye Bullet.

		The student-run team that designed the Bullet claims on its website to have the national record of 315 mph and international record of 272 mph, both set last October at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah (the two records have different judging criteria).
		(The FIA didn't return Gelf's call for comment Thursday.) So the Buckeye Bullet's record was sanctioned only by the Bonneville Nationals Inc. That allows the Brits and their e-motion team to shoot at a lower target in Nevada this week.
		Gelf called Paul Foy, who wrote the AP story, and it was the first he'd heard of Buckeye Bullet.
