on the home page poll.... the current results list 21% of respondents think there will be a pass faster than 450mph..!..?...and just what vehicle do they think will go faster than 450?

Perhaps the EV guru's electric bike? Sorry, sick joke.

The Gillette Mach3 Challenger has the potential (and the wheels if not on salt) but the bike remains in the ownership of the National Motorcycle Museum in the UK.
If not that, then do we have members who have access to something stronger than moonshine or 'wacky backy' as we call it in the UK?

The same vehicle that has already done it... Burklands maybe... Would be my guess...
Nish depending on motor combination, maybe Ron Mains car will suprise even himself?????

We are all serious racers, but Ron is SERIOUS. I'm working on a plug the old fashioned way with a lot of elbow grease. Ron skips the plug and goes straight to the mold . . . with a CNC. Yep, the mold is made on a CNC and straight to Scaled Composites to make the body. Yeah, he's serious. I think 400 is the starting point, and then . . . well, George Poteet better hang on!

You can forget 450+ at Speedweek for now because they will not be afforded the space in either direction. :wink:

Maybe somebody thought Fossett would be running at Speedweek :-)
