This land speed fan has been off to the Sandhills Open Road Challenge in
NE.
Primary part is a 55 mile run on a closed road - entrant picks an
average speed OR w/ safety gear to match one can run in the unlimited
class. The record was broken this year by a fellow with a twin turbo
Viper 144mph up from 133ish.
The other element of the event is a standing start mile (and I REALLY
wanted to do this) on the "smoothest, widest, road in the county" . .
.haha. The Viper mentioned above ran a 215.1mph in the mile . . .for
second place. King of the Hill honors (best single mile run) went to a
Mistubishi sedan - 215.9 mph but still tuning!
David, dreaming about that magical place

catch up later. The Salt Talks were fun last night.

I hope you didn't misunderstand me, I'd never knock anybody involved
with
volunteer work. The coverage from the people attending has been fine,
almost
puts us Salt non residents on the scene. Anyboy spending a loooong day
on that
Desert takes time to get on a lap top after that is top of my good guy
or girl
list.
THANK YOU !!!..... ALL of YOU !!!
My "Hello,Hello,Hello...Is there anybody out there ?" was directed to
the
Listards Not on the Salt, as in what are these shut-outs/shut-ins? doing
this
week?
