I earned my Class B LSR license last weekend with a pass of 174.94747 MPH on my SC R3. I believe this is the fastest speed ever achieved by a Rocket 3, albeit modified.

Thats fast. Where was that? Looks like a runway. What sort of distance was that over?

Thanks, guys. That was at Maxton, North Carolina (old airbase). The East Coast Timing Association (ECTA) is the east coast (USA) equivalent of Bonneville (SCTA). The timing trap is at the end of 1 mile run, then 1/2 mile shutdown.
 
OUTSTANDING, Hombre!! Congratulations on the speed and getting your license. Good Show!!! Thanks for the shots! :y115:
