electric land speed record set

Forwarded from the EVDL mailing list:

The KillaJoule just set an FIM land speed record of 212.047 MPH at the 
BUB Motorcycle Speed Trials on the Bonneville Salt Flats. This is the 
international record for sidecar motorcycles. (Not just electric, but 
the FIM record for _all_ sidecar motorcycles.)

Our "magic number" is 225 mph. That is because 224 is the fastest 
_national_ record (SCTA) for a sidecar motorcycle, which is really the 
record we want to beat.

We are trying to update our facebook page as we go, (but racing does not 
leave much idle time.)

There are two more days of racing at the event, and we have changed 
gearing, etc. We are hoping to dial it in to bump up the speed a bit. :-)
