Brian, hope you do not mind me posting this as shows the amazing run so clearly?

*Gave link as forum resizes it!!
You can clearly see run out to left pick speed and head to bush's! 100% On this run, the data shows 83mph but this is over a few seconds and GPS's
both showed over 84mph. This proves a kite buggy run on playa and speed. I've looked all over GPS log and no other speeds close to that point.
Full respect to Brian!

Glad this is put to rest and now it is time for Brian to sit back and enjoy the record! I hope that he can only keep trying and do even better!
Again Brian much respect for that mad run!

Thats the really amazing thing is you can look at how short his run was. It was only a trial run to see how everything worked. Who knows how fast he
could've gone with 5 miles to fine tune and adjust his angle to the wind. I described his run as "throw a match in the gas tank and see where we go".
Brian agreed.

I'm curious as to what the situation would have been had a 2.3m been used.

GPS points are the way to go as proof. Videos are not necessary and has no way to show speed. So who's up for the 100mph attempt??

I'm ready for that challenge. My new goal is to be the first to break 100mph. With that buggy I could have easily hit that speed had I started at the
freeway. It was a very short run. Felt kinda like a Drag Race! Now that this is settled I can relax. Most of you don't know me very well but to the
few that do, I am not perfect. But one thing is for sure...you can always count on my word. My word is my bond, and as a man, that is all that we
have.
Now I saw I uploaded the wrong video for you guys and I know you want to see. So I have a video that one of the guys took that I recently discovered.
You will see me "Ride into the sunset...of Dust" LOL!
