any help on verifying the Honda Team running "blown" class or not appreciated

Cook Shootout FB page announced earlier that:

 the Honda Team running J-Fuel Streamliner 660 cc

gained entry in to the Bonneville 200 mph club, showing Dan Warner presentation

the SCTA J Fuel Streamliner record is 219.884

the SCTA J Blown Fuel Streamliner record is 266.561...

BOTH of the above are the listed Bonn. 200 mph club MINIMUMS  posted on their updated site list......

at SW Honda ran Blown class

wondering if they switched to NA as indicated by Cook FB post of classification....and thereby gained
entry in to Bonneville 200 MPH club

Ohio State streamliner just ran a short little 183 mph run. They  coasted safely into their pit. Not bad considering they started slightly a mile before entering the time tomorrow. Sure was quiet!

      I think that If they set an FIA record above 200 they get a hat irrespective of the BNI records. By the pictures on the Shootout Facebook page it is the blown motor.

Then we need to vote to change the bylaws of the 2 club to stop "easy" records!

previous record they set according to Mike Cook Shootout page said
"J-Fuel streamliner...660 cc FIM cat A-1-4"

so that was normally aspirated..?

and now possibly blown class...

FIA cat A-I-4 is blown.

Records before the Shootout stood at 177.8 for km and 179.56 mile.

ok...thanks Tricky

i see they ran 40 mph under the published 200 mph club minimum,
according to current bylaws

and gained entry into that club..

thanks for sorting out the class being "BLOWN"

as the FB announcement on mike cook shootout site referred to it as J Fuel Streamliner

im still confused

thanks for all info and updates..!!

The 2 club web page says which is--- higher RECORD/MIN applies  the FIA is not mention on the frt page requirements---I have not read all the by-laws in detail

The face book page says they ran 227 in J Fuel the existing record on the 2 club site says  219.+++ as some one has already stated---

SOOOO what's the beef if the speeds listed from the 2 websites are correct--


whoops Iwill go check the minimums---checked and found nothing but the two previously mentioned

Blown and Unblown records---

What am I missing guys??????

According to the 200 MPH Club web site, if the class is not listed the minimum is 200. FIA cat A-I-4 is not listed.

Truz Missle just ran 258mph  and sounded exceptionally clean. I made it down to the pits and found out that a lot of vehicles are using pretty much all of the track.

Would somebody who does Facebook like to tell Bo Burkdoll that it was his Dad's 1987 record that the Honda team took?

I think Bo already knows, he commented asking about the class on the Cooks Facebook post about the record.

Barnyard Bearcat is finally on course accelerating towards the mountains from the extreme south end.  Those of you hoping for a Banzai pass may be disappointed as we’ll be easing into the throttle, hoping to avoid “interfacing” with any spectators and/or garnering any supplemental timing slips from the various sanctioning and licensing bodies monitoring our progress.
About half track the sanctioning bodies will change, the track will get a little firmer and the spectator problem will lessen dramatically, so speeds can be increased.
We expect to use the full course this pass so no chute will be deployed.  
Then we expect an orderly and successful turnaround, hopefully no longer than two days, but are prepared to spend longer should difficulties (they have been quite generous with their visits these past few weeks) make themselves known before making our return run.
Our fingers are crossed.

Truz Missle just made a return run pass at 259 mph. That should give them a new record it 258! The Honda streamliner is up next. They've been very successful out here today!

 Honda streamliner just ran 260 mph. It sounded good and clean. It sounds like that the triumph streamliner could be on its way down to the mountain to take its first run. Again, that's what it sounds like.
