Cool posting; this made me laugh from the article:
Quote
Warner told the Bangor Daily News that getting to 311 mph wasn't nearly as hard as slowing down; he didn't mention that his front fender broke near the fastest point of his run. "It was a little scary."
May the world never see whatever exists that can scare Bill Warner a lot.

That's
pretty
very extremely impressive. No cooling system at all... wonder how hot the motor gets in the short time it's running?
And yes, the video was kind of pointless since you could see absolutely nothing of interest after the first 20 seconds.

~50% faster than I went.
Pretty decent bodywork, I would have had a tail like that if it were legal when I was running SCTA.
Surprised he can get away with those tires.
