Don't they already have an event like that called speed week...... I personally do not think this is a good idea - the reason that bike typically look for their own event is because of the dominat role,priority and problems running in events with cages. The real trick is to increase the interest in the biker world.

Speed Week isn't the same for the really high speed streamliners:
1. They can't achieve a FIA record there, since you can't run the course both ways and there is no FIA official there.
2. Speed Week isn't setup for the one hour turn around required for an FIA record and the course isn't setup for return runs in the opposite direction for safety reasons.
3. The BUB course is a 11 mile course, so the cars/bikes have an extra mile to get up to maximum speed. Very important if you are trying to run in the 400-500 mph range.
I feel you would probably have less than 6 cars that run over 350 mph that would be impacting time on the course and these cars don't make run after run and with the addition of a short course like has been mentioned I don't feel they would impact runs per day for everyone.
The other option is to do like they did last year and run these types of cars after the BUB meet on the same course, but that is quite expensive and I would think the expense might come down if they could run at the same meet. Of course they would be spending more that what it takes to enter Speed Week, but probably far less than what it would take for them to go run on private time.
Also running on private time usually means no spectators due to insurance problems and if they ran at a meet like BUB more of us would be able to watch history being made and also the TV folks would more likely cover something like this that could then be viewed by thousands.
Just my thoughts,
