and all those efforts that dont make the number.......very awesome
also.......but obviously not mission accomplished.....equation not
done.......expertise not satisfactory for the job...etc........

I couldnt disagree more...........

there are some tremendous efforts behind the success that 
deserve as much if not MORE credit than the dude who 
obtained it and drove it.......!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

there are many vehicles that ANYONE could drive/ride to 200 + mph
records.................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

but the expertise/effort required to make it happen is often times
the real special part......
