Hello All,
Here are the 2019 stats from the salt flats in Utah, USA, and some 2018 results for comparison...
475 entries
850 total runs cars and bikes
25 total records set:
8 by 4-wheel vehicles
7 by 3-wheel vehicles
10 by 2 wheel vehicles and of that only 3 records were over 100 mph
You will be pleased to note that my 350cc Morini was the only bike under 1000cc that had enough "grunt" to both break 100 mph and set a record on that sloppy dangerous course.
In fact, more bikes crashed on the course (14) than set records (10) , and two of the go-downs resulted in serious injury to the riders...
2018 stats
500 entries (approximately)
179 total records set
100 by 4-wheel vehicles
79 by motorcycles
Why ?
2018 had dry firm salt
2019 has wet sloppy rutted mush....

HI Robert
If slushy salt is anything like slushy snow then I take my hat off to you.
I can't imagine how tough that was.
Well done.
