you have more nerve than me 
what did that feel like with regards to stability, vibration, wind noise ?
how long did it take to get to that speed?

Very stable... Lots of wind noise. After- I was shaking from adrenaline but awesome. Hard to take pic at that speed. I did a pre-run on the road to look for potholes etc. made sure enough room, no curves or traffic.... Then let her rip. I had throttle left but not the nerves. Lol!!

On an airstrip would be ideal. With some mild turns, potholes, up and down hills, and darting animals ie deers, it will become quite hairy. Oh, also make sure the tires are in excellent condition with no history of repairs.
