Re: Maxton

I've been trying to keep up with this thread and make comparisons as best 
they can be made. So far I have:

Fastest one way pass (not necessarily a record)
Bonneville: 256mph (not sure of exit spd)  
Maxton:     250mph (exit speed was 253mph)

Fastest AVERAGE record:
Bonneville: 245mph     
Maxton:     248mph (averaging 250 run with run before or after)
ElMirage:   218mph

Bonneville has less traction but 5 miles to get there & plenty of room to 
shut down.
Maxton has optimum traction but only 1 mile to get there & less then a mile 
(including sandtraps) to shut down. (brakes are NOT optional!)
Both venues require varying degrees of skill to handle the bike in the given 
conditions.
Considering all factors involved I don't see why we can't give a  "resonable" 
comparison.

Ok, back to my well below 100mph bikes.
