The April 28-29, 2013 opener at The Ohio Mile was quite
thrilling to say the least. With violent wind gusts and storms, our team only
managed to make 2 passes all weekend long. Anything above 15 mph cross or
headwinds is the limit for our race team and seriously slows our speed and
affects safety.
The great news is that we made the most out of those passes
and with the skill of our rider, Mark E. Dotson, he was able to blast through
the head and cross winds at 14 mph to break another Land Speed record in the
MPS/F-3000 – 4 (Modified Partial Streamlined, Fuel, 3000 CC 4 Stroke). At
223.21 MPH, He blew right through the old published record of 212.017 set in
2012.
We have also reclaimed our title of MPS/F-1350 – 4 (Modified
Partial Streamlined, Fuel, 1350 CC 4 Stroke) with a record setting pass of
222.55 MPH. The previous published record was at 219.691 set in 2012.
This means that we now hold 3 out of 4 titles in the large
bore bikes category of the Modified Partial Streamlined Fuel classes, 1350,
2000 and 3000 and brings our Land Speed Racing records to a total of 9.
With
the help of some great sponsors, the 2013 racing season is well underway.
