"Last weekend the Motorcycle Wheelie World Championship/Top Speed took over runway 26 of the Elvington Airfield in North Yorkshire, UK, for two days of high octane antics. Riders from several countries competed for the fastest wheelie over a distance of 1 kilometer, as well as a standing mile top speed contest. The new champ, Gary Rothwell from the UK, was clocked at 197.879 mph (318.455 km/h) on his turbocharged Suzuki Hayabusa."
