No way! Thanks to my "brick in the wind" aerodynamics I can only go 202 :D

Wow, a small block at that speed. Good thing it wasn't a big block with all that extra weight. ;) 1400 RWHP. Not bad! I wonder what the MPG were!

* In fine print on the last page of the Bonneville Salt Flat Record book
it notes that all world records are held by Big Block engines, & those
listed in the book are simply the closest anyone else has ever got.

Sorry fellas.
