I would want for no more if I can break 100 kph. I don't know if I have the stones to hold on for that yet though.

I have been putting together a NABX page, and would like photos of all the buggies going for the speed record, so would appreciate any photos....much of the info has been sourced from the NABX site, "where else" and I received an email from Dean Jordan, who incidentally was at El Mirage when he replied lol, allowing me to help promote the NABX to as many people as possible, believe me, there are many people around the world who have no idea what the NABX is...

So yeah, any good quality photos or video taken at the NABX and you would like to share to help promote this awesome event, I will gratefully include on the page.

Just curious - are these crazy Brits doing this on standard Flexi bugs or are they in stretch limo race bugs? I feel some...er.......buggy envy developing ; )
