As wonderful the accomplishment is for the sidecar motorcycle streamliner and the team is to be congratulated for theirs efforts, THIS IS NOT A RECORD.
There was no sanctioning whatsoever. Not SCTA, USFRA, FIM or AMA. That portion of the Cook Shootout was delayed to Oct 5th.
ANY speeds recorded are simply that, recorded speeds, personal bests, one-way timing tickets.
All this mean is the vehicle has GREAT potential, but under no circumstances should it be elevated to record holder.
Record holders (drivers, riders and team members) deserve our respect for adhering to strict regulation under tremendous mental, physical, monetary and emotional pressures.
At best, it demonstrates the sidecar M/C streamliner is capable of greatness in the record books, but has NOT earned a line in the record books yet.
