What is interessting is that they used GPS to determine speed. Nor did 
it state that it was over a given trap distance. I suspect that this 
puppy hit it's top speed and then decelerated. I would like to see this 
and the bug on the salt flats. I suspect that going for a full mile or 
more at full boogie would be hard for either of them to do. Thoughts? 
Anybody on the list witness this?
