No, Frank has never run a mile-course. The 265 was on the full runway at Elvington which I think is around 1.3miles, have to check.

I think that's pretty fast over any distance.  Outstanding.   :thumb:

Tom,
  It was a pleasure meeting you at Texas.  I want to thank you again for "The List" and the Shootout you organized at The Mile.  I did not get to compete in the shootout as hoped, but will work on getting a ride together for March.

  As for "The List", I believe it is a strong motivator and great for the LSR community both US and abroad.  I, like many, have been watching our once proud standings drop like the stock market.  This only fuels my desire to get something together to challenge myself and others on "The List".

  Keep up the great work, your efforts are commended well beyond internet forums.  See you in March!

It was my pleasure meeting you, professional set up at your pits, very impressive :thumb: Glad you're planning on returning, say the word and I'll add you to the shootout :thumb: The list is what it is, a motivator, hopefully we can all continue to climb on the list and "push" this sport to new heights!

I guess I made the list by the air of my chinny chin chin.  Its actually 203.85 mph though....hey every little bit helps....I go from #90 to #88, lol.

And George Beaver's bike went 203.666, but he's superstitious and has it as 203.665 I think on his bike...I'll find out who was riding it.  It may be "doug" as a lightweight guy named Doug rode his bike to 203.xx mph....#93 maybe?

Damn!

Tom corrected it!

He had me ahead of Yancy for a year by mistake!

I always got a kick out of that, because I know how happy Rich was to be ahead of me, even by just a little.

Oh well, Rich deserves it, a hell of a nice guy who has done lots of hard work and given me TONS of advice and help over the years.

When we were going for top speed of the year last year he offered to bring me parts & tires when he knew we were going head to head.

A true gentleman.

Walt,

You're right though, Rich is a TRUE gentleman.

Oh yeah, I knew!  LOL! The mph figures were always correct, though.  They are the same as they are now.  It's just that he switched the PLACES around.  It was there for anyone to see.  If he had the wrong mph for me or Rich I would have told him immediately, of course.  I wouldn't enjoy it if I didn't come by it honestly.  I just thought it was funny being ahead (even if it was incorrect!) since I know how much Rich enjoyed beating me!  I don't expect to be on the top 10 anymore after Texas anyways.  Fun while it lasted.

No less than 300HP and a slight tailwind according to my wind drag cooefficient calculations.  Are you wide or tall and bulky?  Not trying to be funny but it matters if you are serious.

300HP and some rider tuck training and you should be able to go 200mph.  Maybe a lower tank and a taller profile tire.  Gearing isn't the issue, the gear will have to be about an 18/43 with 300HP minimum.  It's torque to move the mass thru the airstream.
