    Hi All,

    I didn't make it to the salt this year, but by all accounts it was one of the best years for a long time. Checked the records and runs, but no sign of Tiny or his VT250F/CBR/supercharged bike.

    One of the overseas riders had a fall, but she's okay...

    There were a couple of 2fiftycc bikes that ran over 120mph and a couple of CBR250 MC19's ran well also (see attached PDF).

    If anyone from the forum went along, feel free to post some pics.

    Check the 261mph Hayabusa in the website ENTRIES area...

    And here I was trying to work out how to get mine to 200mph, not just 200kph

    Those times are very good when you factor in the fact that the salt takes about 10% off your top speed.
