The previous World Record Holder's time was 6.5 seconds, which equates to 68.72mph. The previous record was 51.84 mph at 8.630 seconds Coslinger Special photo taken from Warren Beauchamp's webpage. All runs were in legal wind conditions and on a legal surveyed course. Matt Weaver reported that he had his bike over 80mph, but shut down early due to some wind buffeting and concern over some bridge structures near the timing area. Weather conditions were ideal, approximately 65 degrees F and very light winds.
Results are unofficial.
The records committee must approve them before becoming official. The morning session on Tuesday has been cancelled. Hopefully we can get more legal runs in. We ran a Morning Session on Monday, but the times weren't too spectacular. Paul Buttemer was at about 60.
