Thanks Scott, I had no idea I "sat" in the pecking order of "all motor records" which you have obviously researched well.

Fingers "X'd" and some good luck, help and advice from a few friends my new stroked motor "should" bump the speed up a little next year in March.

A few of us are looking forward to coming over to the US and "give it a go "there where it all started.

Hope you make it over here next year and bring one of your turbo'd Busa's.--- you'll love it.
