found this posted awhile ago on a non-racing related thread on LR...
"""""Thank you for the information regarding Andy Green, regarding the Airtech DB fairing..I am certain the wreck/crash was not caused by the fairing being affected by either side winds or a gust.
I am hoping this week we can put the bike/bodywork back together to acurately determine what the cause of the crash was, until then Bob and I will not speculate as to what caused the problem we/I endured.
Once we do I/we will post our findings as to the issue at hand, this will be done to make sure that no one else endures what I did last Sunday while running over 270+ mph. The picture of the 314 mph gps was not posted by another racer to stipulate what our top speed was, it was posted simply as what it was..an erroneous measurement we have not experienced with a gps in the past and never before experienced until now.
We are certain that with further development with our design we will be not only closer to our bad gps speed however we will again have the fasted timed sit-on bike anywhere. This will ruffle some feathers however we are positive with what we have learned.

not sure how one can be "certain" of what didnt cause the accident...and then plan to piece the bike back together.." to acurately determine what the cause of the crash was"......and then believe ""I will not speculate as to what caused the problem we/I endured""....when that is precisely the reality of the situation...
i realize all this talk can ruffle feathers and many dont see eye to eye.....in this era of communication its our reality to chit-chat-mon morning quarterbacking-internet experts etc
