Ok sorry to be a killjoy here but lets look at the facts.
Suzuki or any business will not sponsor you to put either your life at risk or to break the speed limit.
A lap around is about 17,000k's.
Th record is just under 9 days
That equates to 1,888k's per day
If you stick to the speed limit you might average 90kph
That means you need to sit in the seat for about 20.9 hours per day giving you 3 hours sleep per day for each of the 9 days.
Just imagine it -
But officer Suzuki are sponsoring me to speed.
At the coronial inquest if you get killed what defence will suzuki have.
, not to mention the criminal charges that would be laid against them or the litigation payout. How exactly will Suzuki benifit from sponsoring something they could never advertise.
