[Land-speed] Brit Steam Car Efforts

[Adin, David]

Hahahaha,
I forgot to tell Mayf that I have the fastest car in my driveway (when
something runs) AND the fastest car on my side of the street!

Yeah, I'm poking fun at the "World's record" this or that.  Don't think
for a minute I don't Respect the accomplishments of the Sparky's and
Turk's and Skip's  and ALL the folks that get out and run something.
Maybe it is just a "one good run" goal philosophy?

Enough psychoanalysis, eh?

I believe the rule book states that SCTA/BNI records can only be set at
SCTA/BNI meets. One of the things Jesse failed to appreciate. Therefore
this
is I believe a "Worlds record Academy" record. They offered to certify
my
"Worlds Fastest Packard Powered Post War GM Product" record for $2995.

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.
