Oh, the Vesco car. Yes, it's in impound, but pulled in as we were driving out. I don't have their speed. Will get it soon.
As for the Forstall/Knecum/DeLuca bike -- the motor was based on a 'Busa built big -- about 1675 or so cc.

You want me to guess -- or to ask him when we see him-- about an hour from now?

Freud, Josh says XL, please.
And on to records. Here's the next-to-last batch of record speeds. Skip Hedrich has yet to run -- and his run will be in a few minutes and also the last run of the event.
Bike 3415 A/PS/PF 100 John Levie/Scott Guthrie Racing 52.163 52.629 52.396
Bike 3416 M/PG 50 John LeVie/Scott Guthrie Racing 57.915 57.629 57.772
745 E/CBFALT Ragsdale Racing John Huard 215.716 200.628 208.172
Bike 3371 A/PS/BF 750 Watters & Higgins -- Fireman Jim riding 223.846 225.043 224.444
1933 U/HH2 Ye Olde Dragon 192.124 193.678 192.901
I'll click to post and then keep entering the runs.
9996 Salt Cat Racing XXO/BGC 183.236 184.019 183.627
Bike 9391 (Crap - didn't write down the class) Jeff Bailey and his Speed Shop 174.943 177.600 176.271
That's all I've got now. I'm waiting for Skip to make that run -- and then it'll be over for another year. I'll be back in a few minutes.

And it's a big anti-climax -- because Skip pulled the chute about the 1 1/2. That's it -- World of Speed 2010 is over. Thanks for reading along. I'll no doubt get some more of this-n-that during the next few hours and days, but for now -- I'm done. C U Later.

Did the chute come out?
Many times it hasn't.

Yes -- I knew the run was over 'cause I saw the chute flying in the breeze behind the car. The fun is done for now.
Well, most of it -- the S1000 BMW is being scotch taped and baling wired together so it can be ridden home. It turns out that BMW does not print a shop manual -- only on-line. That might be fine in a nice shop, but Debbie's been working with the laptop out in the sun (well, under our easy-up) to try to give the guys the requested information. But it's back together now.
Almost.
