Gruntmax 90 mile straight is certainly long enough and your right the 1st time it's in WA and if my memory serves me correct (probably Not) it's between Balladonia and Ciguna or something where out that way

Streetfighters used Casino airstrip for 2 yrs but costs overran returns and may not happen quite the same next year (900m to accelerate & 450 to brake got me to 191mph on my streetbike and stopped ....Just ....)
I have looked briefly into Corowa airfield and found the council very enthusiastic, also started looking at insurance but ran into my prep time for racing in the US and didn't get any further then, may try to progress this more in Jan or Feb
None of these are a mile acceleration but 1 km is possible, other options include Maralinga , Maralinga is 2.4km

I am interested in getting the speed limiter removed from my Busa. Can someone let me know how and when this could happen.

that's an easy one.....
juz take it to someone who knows how to remove it, and it could happen whenever you're ready to do it !!?!!
footnote:- I really should start charging big $$$ for this sorta info!?!

Blokes on this site may have these to sell or if not go on ebay & buy a TRE for a busa. If you can plug in a toaster you should manage to install this.

Hi Stuntrider666
I'll get back to you about this one some of us are looking at getting it turned off through the ECU, I will need to talk to someone first.
PM your Ph No as I have accidently deleted or PM that you sent me.
Cheers Rev004

Maj, how eerie! I was checking out Maralinga a couple of days ago, admiring the roads when I noticed that there must be people living at the old defence accom site - I saw a pool!
This looks like a great option for a National speed trial site. I'll follow up on this one.
I'm still keen to do something locally, I'll be catching up with the boys tonight (If I can get this dog collar off) and discussing it there.

OOOOooo, Now that would be interesting. Beats 315 (indicated on the wildly optomistic '99 speedo) up some huge long bumpy straight up Buckets way. (Just a dream I once had)
I'd be really interested on how "in the real world" my dead stock '99 would stand up in top speed against all the later models and modifieds.
Corowa has 2 strips. 1827m and 1524m. Seeing as how my 'busa will pull 290ish down the main straight at PI and it's 900m, I reckon probably entering at about 160(funny, not really watching the speedo at the time) and I enter turn 1 at 220ish, I reckon 1.8km would well and truely top it out. Even better - it's just down the road from where my place is.
