      Wow, a Brough Superior on the salt flats. That'd be something to see, a million dollar motorcycle run flat out !

        Wow. I wonder how fast dennis Manning's Notrun went.

        Did you hear about the guy going 310 mph on his Hayabusa at Loring AFB? It wasn't even a streamliner. They are not set up there to do land speed records there though I don't think. I don't think that they time over a measured mile and do the return run average speed run within an hour there.

          I was there and it was good. If youve never been, put it on your bucket list. Been going since 1984. Warners Busa is fast but the salt will tell the tale.

                    LOL! Yep Lars is "Octain" on NGWClub.com (Naked GoldWigns Club) Didn't realize he used the same webname on other places. That blown 'wing is how I know him.
