There are 22 bikes running on open records, so if they can transverse the shorty course twice, they can have a Bonneville World Record!

That procedure is still in the decision phase and the logistics on the run back conflicts are still in the works.

Right, Jack.

And looking at the June weather reports and conditions doesn't always lead to August course decisions being made ahead of time.

Many remember running the USFRA tune up meet in July.
Prior to the events of last year, the MC LSR was set on 14 July and they actually started running around the 1st.
Like the usable area is shrinking, so is the window of time. :cry:
Wants ,needs, and results are way different things.

I don't see Larry Lindsley's car. I hope it makes the lineup.
We need that speed and sound to make the meet standout.

To make the meet stand out?  I think it's getting too much attention . . .
(No offense to Larry . . .  ;-)
