Hi Steve,
Just returned from a week at Bonneville. Conditions were PERFECT, till it rained. It was a mess after that and the event was cancelled. I'll start a thread when I get time. My 100cc bike hammered the old record but I couldn't back it up due to the rain. Never even got a chance to run my 250cc. What a blow out.

Hi Pat,

Congratulations on bettering the old record and sorry to hear that after all the work the track was rained out. The old rallying cry of, There's always next year, falls pretty flat after the work, money and expense of this year.

Steve.

Thanks Pat for sharing your adventures with us. As you've indicated in past posts "salt" records don't come easy or cheap, which makes holding one that much sweeter. Congrats on your latest effort; no answer for weather conditions...just above human pay grade! Rick C.
