Mayf,

Been hashed already, they are nothing like Mr. Bullock. (aka. Jesse
James);-)

They are doing FIA at Edwards and They are supposed to come to Speedweek
and do the salt thing.

All on the up and up so to say, you got steam in that sunbeam? An extra
power adder perhaps?

I see in a news release that the Brits will attempt to break the steam
record of 127 mph soon, maybe even today. But the news release claims
that it will be a *world* record. So is the FIA involved or not? Is it
going to make a pair of runs in opposite directions within one hour or
not?  Is it going to be a SCTA record? If so, how is that done?  A
certificate of speed?  I hope it is not a SCTA record because it is not
an event open to competitors.  If the old record was set on the salt
then that is where any SCTA record breaking that speed should be done.
