Chris Carr regains motorcycle world land speed record

Piloting the BUB Streamliner ‘Lucky 7′ at the Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah, yesterday, Chris Carr regained the motorcycle world land speed record with a new mark of 367.382 mph.

Still awaiting ratification by the FIA, the time was the average of the requisite two opposite direction passes and was set during a ‘private time’ session booked by the Denis Manning’s BUB team following the tricky conditions and fire experienced at the BUB Speed Trials at the beginning of the month.

Full details and pictures will appear on the team’s website shortly.
