Looks like this might be fun. All you have to do is average 130mph on 2 runs.

silverstate classic or something like that.. where they shut down a section of I-70 or something like that out in nevada and do top speed runs... you know the one... you have like a x-mile run and highest avg. speed both ways wins... they have a bunch of classes.. hmmm group deal on entry fee?? hehe

I'd get a Techtom MDM-100 monitering thing to tell speeds. I would looooooove to do the Silver State Classic. Sounds like a blast..
