I think my RT (Reaction Time) can be accurately measured on a kitchen clock?

I use a calendar ... if I can find one.

The pilot adage seems to apply to motorcycles as well...

There are the old, and there are the bold. Usually not both at the same time.

I hate the media! If this guy breaks the 300 mph barrier, we would not have heard one bit of it. But, he gets killed trying, and it is all over the media.

Same thing with MotoGP, Isle of Man, and auto racing.

1. that is speed for a ‘flying mile’ not a dead start mile.

2. MOST of the racers at Bonneville are older people.

A long time friend of mine has worked at Speed Week for well over 40 years & he is 82.
