A few years ago a good friend set a record on his motorcycle.
I was going to fly my little airplane down to be his "crew" but a pile of thunderstorms formed right near Wendover, so I missed his record-setting runs.
He said the weird thing is there is no real sensation of speed when on course. Nothing but featureless salt.
You're staring at the mountains off in the distance, trying to hear the slightest increase in RPMs as you tuck as tightly as possible.
