2014 BMST Updates
« on: August 24, 2014, 02:32:11 PM »
Given the BMST started Saturday the 23rd, anybody have updates on speed runs made -- or other info from the actual event?

Now we know how much we miss Ray the Rat.

He was everywhere and commented frequently as he posted the fotos.

RIP, Ray.

Thanks for the updates Jessechop. Is there any information about the salt condition, such as slushy or loose, hard and smooth, etc? Thanks, Dean

Copied from my "source" (Facebook shhhhhhh)   :-D

Jay Allen bike #69 2000-A-PF just off the Mtn Course with a speed of 161.719mph - course status: "like a freeway- hardly noticed the wind- hard, firm and fast"

We have been on wind hold  for about the last two hours. The course is not exactly dry but Is good enough to go fast.
The main problems are the lake at the boat ramp and pot holes everywhere it is not dragged.

Just hoping we can get more runs in today.

Don,.

Nothing like a person at the event giving some updates....Otherwise we have to dig deep for updates...  Thanks

By the way I read up to date information on Facebook that Andy Sills went 215 on the nitrous bike.

Did any of the streamliners show up, particularly interested in the big 4?
