    How fast does a 400Hp Hayabusa go? Come find out 23 Feb, Lake Wairarapa

    Hey folks,
    CliffHanger are running a special event for all high speed freaks. Short notice, but come on over and either watch or participate.
    The event is open for all the petrol heads who are keen on trying how fast they dare to ride down a straight road!

    Also I will be trying for a new CliffHanger Land Speed Record. Hopefully I don't blow up my engine this time

    The event has a great observation bank so you should be able to see what fast looks like clearly.

    Check out the deatils:

    Cheers

    Only a quarter mile? Could do with a few more than that if you wanted to see how fast it really goes.

    Sounds like blast. Hope it goes well.

    Yep flying 1/4 mile, there will be about 2 kms to get up to speed before the timing gear. And Yes a Wednesday. The road officially closes at 4:00pm, so the first runs will start about then.
