not to be harsh, or diminish what they've done - but so far it's just a number, not a record, right? if it's not a record, then it's not history it's a footnote. One of those really cool (from the spectator's perspective) bits about Bonneville is all the guys who made a one-way run at record speeds, broke, then someone else runs both ways and gets the record... that said, if I were that guy who ran one-way, I'd be saying all sorts of bad words... but that's racing.Doing it all wrong since 1966

Remember Mickey Thompson? He was an awesome possum just like George and Ron.
They both have an excellent track record of speed, and will be remembered with respect.Act your age, not your shoe size. - Prince

no one is whining, I'm simply asking a question about calling it a record before it's actually a record. And I hope they're not the nicest guys in the world - after all, nice guys finish last.

In fact, the only person who used the word record in this thread (up to now), has been YOU.
All we are doing is acknowledging their excellent performance.Act your age, not your shoe size. - Prince

Hope they can set the record, it's been tough going so far with just half a leg.............There are very few people in this world who's opinion I value, you are not one of them.
