Alan Thoresen is doing practice runs on his ZX14 in preparation for this years Speed Week at Bonneville. He has run over 200mph on the Hamilton Airport runway before using NOS.
This practice was with out NOS and in wet slippery conditions...just like the salt Alan says...but he still ran around 186mph checked by GPS. Alan and his Black Thunder Racing team are from Auckland...New Zealand and this will be his second trip to the salt flats.
Hi
No he missed the record. Too much frontal area on the ZX14.
