Default Re: VIDEO: 218 mph top speed run

That's a crazy piece of footage. I'd forgotten about that '98 test in R&T.

That track at Ft. Stockton was treacherous eight years before on the Record Run. To think that someone would go 218 on a track having banked turns with no guardrails, is freakin' amazing.

Ole Lingey's balls were so big he had to roll them around in a freakin' wheelbarrow.

As for this...

...Ok, Behan, you're on. If I make it to the NCM C4 event next year for the Record Run's 30th, I'll buy and you freakin' tell all, sucker.
