AMAZING !

First new member of 2013.......

Bret DeStoop of Australia
on a 1970's Suzuki GT750, 2-stroke,
running normal aspired -
no supercharger or turbo - and
posted 240.192 MPH.

Reports are that he crashed after
the big speed, but is now OK.

I think this is the only 2-stroke on "The List."

BILL WARNER - Champion

BILL WARNER WAS A MAN IN FULL.

Only 44 years old, Bill Warner accomplished
more in land speed racing than most racers
accomplish in a career – probably ten careers.
Most knowledgeable racers expect that
Bill’s 311 MPH terminal speed
record in the 1.5 mile race will
not be broken in their lifetimes,
and that Bill’s mile record of
296 MPH – set only hours
before his death – will be the same.

Warner, a marine biologist and college
graduate was a gentle tropical fish farmer
in the Tampa Florida area. Bill came late
to land speed racing,
beginning a racing career of rocket-ship-like
performance less than 10 years ago.

Always trying to reach the next level of speed,
Bill was never satisfied with “good enough.â€
Bill quickly proved his championship strengths
by taking the Texas Mile motorcycle
track record with an un-streamlined bike in 2010.

It was at that point that we all realized that
everybody else was playing catch-up ball,
and that we were in the final 2 minutes of the game.

The next year, Bill slammed down his
earth- shaking, and world-beating
311 MPH run at Loring.

In one single run, Bill became the first
to break 270 mph, 280 mph, 290 mph,
300 mph and 310 mph.

In a time when the ultimate record
was being increased by
Measures of 5 or 10 mph – or
even 2 mph – Bill in one run
advanced the mark 50 mph.

And he wasn’t even done.

Bill brought to the sport, and to his
pursuit of that sport, a drive and intensity
rarely seen in it’s combination of
intellect, scientific thinking, willingness
to work 24/7 and to place all his worldly
assets in the service of his racing goals.

While doing this, Bill maintained
an even temper, rarely if ever raising
his voice in anger.
He blessed his friends
with his ready humor,
and he humored those that
thought they were his competition.

In fact, Bill had no competition.

And he never will.

Track lengths include: ¼ mile, ½ mile, 1 mile , 1.3 mile, 1.5 mile,
distance not recorded and Bonneville style unlimited distance.

Racing surfaces include: asphalt, concrete, dirt and salt.

**(The Finnish speed were run on a track with a maximum racing length of
about 1.0 mile, but some racers used less that that length to achieve their results.)

It is apparent from the track listings and dates that motorcycle LSR (Land Speed
Racing) is now a true international sport. When will we see Japan,
China, Brasil and the return of Russia ?

All speeds listed are OFFICIAL speeds. No GPS from “individuals,â€￾

OBSERVATIONS FOR THE 2013 SEASON:

Five (5) new members on the list, including several
in the 1/4 mile, and even a 750cc 2-stroke,
but nobody new going over the prestigious 250 mph mark.

Ride safe and be lucky and fast in 2014 !

Re:BECCI ELLIS World's Fastest Woman @ 248.5 mph

Looks like England's

"Becci" Ellis

has moved into the
undisputed lead for

"WORLD'S FASTEST WOMAN"

at Elvington race track in England.

Her VERY impressive 248.5 MPH will
move her up to 31st on "The List,"
with only a few folks ahead of her.

This is the first "Good" speed of the year,
and she has the chance to "make the number"
before the 2014 season is over !

Wish her good luck !

 

[TZ750d]

Re: ED PETROZZI 244.033 MPH - new on the list !

Wow !

First new member of 2014 !



EDWARD PETROZZI
2 BAR RACING

244.033 MPH


244.033 MPH in only one (1) mile !

Can't wait to see if he has
anything left in the tanks ......

Good Job !

 

[TZ750d]

Re: BECCI ELLIS World's Fastest Woman @ 264.1 mph

Looks like England's

"Becci" Ellis

has absolutely claimed
undisputed lead for

"WORLD'S FASTEST WOMAN"



Her VERY impressive 264.1 MPH

this weekend at Elvington race track in England.
will move her up to the TOP TEN on "The List,"
with only a few folks ahead of her.

This is the BEST speed of the year, anywhere,
by anybody, man or woman.

Earlier today, Becci smashed a 261.6 MPH pass,
following yesterday's also record breaking run of 260.4 mph

For two-run traditionalists, that's a 262.9 mph !

Three runs over 260 MPH on a sit-on motorcycle has
been done by only a small handful of folks, and Becci Ellis is one !

 

[dadofthree]

...

 

[TZ750d]

Fabulous !

Mika Syren on turbo Hayabusa 257.900mph
at Elgington August 2014


(HE says it's street legal and he runs on pump fuel E-85)

Mika has been helping "The List" with Finnish
results under his screen name of Speeduck (see above)

So: Bonneville Speed Week was rained out, and the
long slog toward the end of the year continues......

BUT:

One new list member over 240 mph

One new list member over 250 mph

One new list member over 260 mph

Great job, guys and girls

 

[TZ750d]

Wow !

First new member of 2014 !



EDWARD PETROZZI
2 BAR RACING

244.033 MPH


244.033 MPH in only one (1) mile !

Can't wait to see if he has
anything left in the tanks ......

Good Job !

Turned out that yes, he had a lot left !
250.+++ MPH at the Loring AFB
event this past weekend.

Racers earning time-slips over 250 mph-
up to 299 mph earn what is called in the
USA, a "AA" competition license.

There are probably fewer than three dozen
such license holders in the world.

Now, Ed has his....

More details as they are available.
