It’s been quite a year already. Rocky is still recovering from an ACL reconstruction surgery in which they harvested his own hamstring to replace his severed ACL in his left knee. The surgery was May 29^th, and his surgeon says full recovery is expected to take anywhere from 9 months to a year. With Mike Cook’s Bonneville Shootout running Sept. 12^th through the 16^th, rehab has gone into double time! (Go here to learn more about this event: http://landspeedevents.com/blog/ )

As mentioned on the HOME page, the three all-time world’s fastest motorcycles will be competing head to head this year trying to reach the milestone of that first official 400 mph run. There are several British teams poised to do battle in 2014. Two of them are running turbine power, while the third, the Angelic Bulldog team, will be running a piston powered, wheel driven streamliner mating two Honda Blackbird engines cleverly linked together to a single transmission. While the Brits are all poised to battle to be the first to reach 400,

It is our goal to reach that milestone in 2013 in the all Yank Shootout.

Ack Attack The Game You can download the App to your IPad from ITunes or go to http://www.top1oil.com/ and click on IPAD App. The game is a true simulation of what it’s like to drive the twin-engine turbocharged Ack Attack streamliner! From push off, through the gears, even deploying the parachute at the end of the run, it is the most realistic LSR simulation game out there.

See if you can beat Rocky’s 2 way FIM record of 376 mph, or try to  top his one way top speed of 394 mph! In the future we’ll add a Ack Attack Wall of Fame for gamers who’ve beat Rocky’s best run. Just send us an email with your name and a digital image of the game showing your top speed. Enjoy the ride…
