Default OT: Guy at work sets Motorcycle Land Speed Record

Really OT but a guy I know from work here has now "officially' set the Land Speed Record for motorcycles on Oct 16th. The old record had stood since 1990. Jim Odom in the Ack Attack twin Hyabusha engined two-wheeler (3000cc/SBG) went 328.3 mph. I think this is so cool although I doubt I have the cajones to go 1/2 that speed on 2 wheels. Here's a link:

Take a peek and then back to 4 wheels!
