OOps, that was last year.............

Never occurred to me that, with NO records kept,
that it would take any longer than the ECTA, which
is about 24 hours..........................

I noticed from the Arkansas Mile updates they were posted the second Monday following the event - so hopefully on Monday.

Greg Watters was high speed for the event with a 237.9 on Saturday.

My "old" FJ1100 made 198.2 on Sunday - popped the engine on the next pass due to rider error... :(

And a 196 MPH run on the turbo GSXR 600, and was on a second run with a 7 mph faster 1/2, and that is where it just starts to get going, then it nosed over to a 189,rats!

Forgot to mention that one!  I think this 196 was the most impressive run of the meet.

I think running a 198+ on a FJ1100 would be.   :wink:

Well, it WAS the most fun one for me!

Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and experience Ransom - helped keep me on the right path and keep the engine together at a lot higher power level than most people expected!  Now that we've proven the potential, time to turn it up a bit for next year!
