Bill, let me be one of the first to congratulate you.  Fantastic accomplishment.

I was talking to Mike the other day and I predicted you would eclipse the 300mph mark.

Again, congrats!

The engine has a LOT more HP in it. The GT42X turbo that Garrett created is a big part of that performance. As some know the engine has no cooling system. :id: It uses billet barrels and a dry head, coated for thermal dispersion. An idea also used in the 300mph roadster at Bonneville. Bike only runs for 25 seconds. 300+ is the twilight zone, everything has to be right. Bill was traveling 457.5'/sec. when the front fender broke from the wind. The Conti tire is running at twice it's speed rating. Bill said the bike handled quite well with just a bit of lightness in the front. (5# will probably fix that). The wind tunnel time was  $$ well spent. What's next? Only the King knows.   LSL

Excellent accomplishment :thumb:

After seeing that you changed the fps number Larry, I checked the math....the 457.5 is correct.....WOW that is a mile every 11.5 seconds! For those that dragrace, that's a 2.88 second 1/4!    .72G's AVERAGE over the entire 1.5 miles.

Bill, you deserve it buddy. I know you work your tail off on this stuff. Nobody in the sport works harder or puts in more hours than you do. It shows in your success.

I’m glad my dad and I were there to see it in person. It’s not every day you get to see history happen right in front of you.

Standing at the line as Bill left everyone got real quiet.  As he disappeared into the heat mirage it got dead silent.

Everyone held there breath... "keep an eye on him guys"..... came over the radio and then the news !!!!

It was an eruption of cheer!!!    I'm glad I was there to see history being made.

Bill, you may go faster but it will be hard to top that moment ever!

Congratulations !!!

I still think the 11.946 mph push that I gave him at the line is what propelled him over the 300 mark..... LOL  :tu:   Jody
