Jere, all, yes, completely true. However to get the red hat in this
particular SCTA class from the 200 MPH club I have to run 260 + mph
twice, lol. Absolutely wont happen in this car. In fact not many of the
mod sports cars have ever gone that fast! So, this is not a record per
se but my goal of exceeding the original Sunbeam slugs record speeds of
203.792 mph. This has been proclaimed by me as the goal ever since I
started work on this car. Simply to exceed the speed layed sown by Sir
Henry Segrave. Now done.
