Well if the salt was crummy, essentially a layer of wet mush, for the Bub's event it was perfect on Monday. The 1350-APG record has been held by Vance Reece since Well Susan Wilson rolled her NRHS prepped Buell S-1 off the trailer and, on the very first pass down the salt for the day, rolled a 166.597 MPH run. The bike was immediately taken to impound where it will sit awaiting her back-up run this morning. It looks like Susan is poised to shatter the 163.854 record that has stood so strong for so many years. Aaron had run as 203+ on the Buell S-2 in the mush as Bubs and will, after Susan bags her record, roll the JB2 skinned Buell out and see if he can continue his record of toppling Land Speed Records. CONGRATULATIONS TO SUSAN !! Accuracy augmentation performed. (Message edited by Blake on September 13, 2007) | ||

>>>So what was the old record Susan is poised to break? The old record belonged (actually as of this moment still does) to Vance Reese at 163.854. I'll try to post an update later. | ||

http://www.scta-bni.org/SCTA-NewWeb/Bonneville/SCT A-BNI_Recs.htm Did she match exactly the record speed on her first run? "Well Susan Wilson rolled her NRHS prepped Buell S-1 off the trailer and, on the very first pass down the salt for the day, rolled a 163.854MPH run. " "The old record belonged (actually as of this moment still does) to Vance Reese at 163.854. " Looks like Vance Reese/Breese snagged the record in 1997 according to the link. Any pics of her bike, or better yet with her on it passing the markers????? | ||
