I like the 6th gear shift at 250mph.
At the Texas Mile, October 2010, Bill Warner of Wild Bros Racing goes 278.6 mph in a standing start mile, on a 650rwhp turbo charged Suzuki Hayabusa Streetbike. On board video taken facing rearward using an AiM Sports SmartyCam with in-video display of GPS speed. (sample rate of the in camera GPS does not allow recording of the top speed that was set in the timing traps) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BT2JjzHa-c

That is just so amazing. I want to try for 200 at Loring this coming year. I know what it takes machine wise. I have the machine. What I don't know is, do I have the skill and resolve to do it.
I can not imagine what is it feels like get within a mile or so an hour of 280 mph. that is over 4.5 miles a minute. I bow to you Mr. Warner

I totally respect the skill it takes to build and pilot a machine that fast... but the only way I'm ever going to go that fast is in something with multiple windows and the name of a major airline down the side.

That bike is begging for a trip to the Bonneville Salt Flats!
10 miles of groomed salt, waiting. He could get that thing up to 280+/- and hold it for about 2 minutes if he's got the cajones. I ran my Busa up to 170 once, and wow. I can't imagine tacking on another 110 over that, but I'd sure like to try! ![]()

That's awesome !! I can't imagine going that fast on two wheels. It's actually hard to imagine it on 4.
![]() Kudos to him. Rick...good luck at Loring. Maybe...just maybe I can make a trip up and go with you. ![]() |
