I guess once you get all together and getting running I'll have to book a trip to Ireland for a test ride Aussuming our Rocket 3 ride at Bonneville goes as planned in August. It would be really cool to get the supercharged record out there.....just saying.
 

I'd love to ship it to the states and partake in some racing in "Mexico" too

If you venture over the next few years we'll help you get on the salt and perhaps a speed record trophy for your favorite place in your shop. The record in the 3000cc modified blown partially streamlined class is just of 161 mph. However, the big engine Rocket 3 especially the first edition is like riding a snake down a frozen mountain with it trying to bite you anytime when you get over 150 mph.
 
Appreciate the offer!
161 doesn't sound like much for a record but one really needs to be lucky with the salt I understand.
I'd need to be doing 180-185 in the quarter to match the top bikes on this island in the closed road drags.

It doesn't but these bikes it get real exciting out there. The hardest bikes I ever ridden out there by a huge factor. I wouldn't advise any rider not to ride a Rocket 3 as a first ride on the salt. The helicopter ride to hospital is over $54,000
