I guess I will add some stuff after all.

I was doing some research and needed a little inspiration, "cubic dollars" is not the only answer! (but it sure as hell helps!) Arfons has always been one of my inspirations, Breedlove follows and the first time I heard of the World of Speed Trials it was on an old black and white television show called "You Asked For It!"that ran a film of the crash of Dennis Campbells boat while trying for a record on water. Campbell was the man that always kept the thought of going faster than anyone else in the world in my mind. The ones that followed continue to give me inspiration.

Welcome To The World Of Speed

Looks like I had to start somewhere, so I'll begin at the beginning. I have no idea what the hell I am going to post here that would interest anybody, but sometimes boredom is only overcome with action. I have one desire. To get myself into the 201 club on the Bonneville Salt Flats. I choose to make the attempt with an un-streamlined twin cylinder motorcycle. I am not a watcher, I am a doer. I could care less how anyone else does it, and I don't think that buying a bike that does 220+ out of the box and puffing it up is much of a feat. I could be horribly mistaken, but I don't believe so.
Anyway, enough of this stuff for now. Perhaps I'll do some research and add more to this and it will turn into something. But. if I expend much energy on this, I won't achieve my goal, will I?

Stay Tuned........
