I have been there a few times and run a few cars informally on the old International course. Craig Breedlove was there the last time but I did not get to see him run. It's good to hear it's in better shape, there were some scary wet spots in the middle of the International when I was there last.
The size and empty flatness is disorienting. At one point I hit top speed, put it in neutral and coasted for a while. After it'd slowed I thought about hopping out of the car while it was still rolling but looked down and I was going 40mph. Felt like three.

2bridges, fantastic! congrats on the 150 club! great pictures!
I would love to do the same thing! sounds a bit white knuckle though (drifting at 130 mph++)
funny but I saw "the fastest Indian" for the first time just two days ago. The images were still fresh in my mind. Great flick!

Bonneville 944 - video added
Sorry for long dealy. Here is in car video of one run at 148mph. Car was very lazy in 5th - 12.3psi max boost on 26/6
The all white makes is very hard to tell how much the car moves on the course, and unfortunately can't see guages, but enjoy.
Have several other in car runs .... will see if those are any better

Way to go! I can imagine how unstable it must feel at speed. Here is a video of a 3 rotor RX7 that hit 215 mph and then had problems:
