Chris Carr at AMA HoF Museum Breakfast

Motorcycle land-speed record holder Chris Carr and the builder of his record-setting streamliner, Denis Manning, will be at the event, ready to talk about their achievements and what its like to ride at 367 mph.

Just in the month of November, Ive gone over 300 mph nine times, and its a really amazing thing, says Carr, a 26-year AMA Flat Track racing veteran who will compete in the Daytona double-header March 3-4. Theres not much time to think about whats going on at those speeds youre just reacting. For me, I really love talking about it. Its fresh. Dont get me wrong. I love flat track, but Ive been talking about flat-track for 35 years. Land-speed racing is a whole new experience, and Ive been lucky that my experiences at Bonneville have been pretty cool of late.

While Carrs record-setting run lasted a few seconds, his streamliner motorcycle was the product of three decades of development.

People think that this is a lot of work, and it is its been 30 years of effort leading to this point but its not like we mind it, says Manning. Land-speed racing is something we love, and something that we wouldnt trade for anything. I may never make the Fortune 500 chasing the world motorcycle land-speed record, but for us, its a real passion.

Tickets for the AMA Hall of Fame Museum Breakfast are $49 prior to Feb. 15 and $55 at the door. Tickets are available over the telephone by calling (800) AMA-JOIN ext. 1234, while online registration opens Jan. 22. Proceeds from the breakfast will support the Museum.

There are few achievements in motorcycling that capture our imagination like the absolute motorcycle land-speed record, says Jack Penton, chairman of the American Motorcycle Heritage Foundation, which raises money for the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum. Everyone from a kid on a dirtbike to a retiree who rides cross country on a touring motorcycle can only dream about what it is like to go that fast on two wheels. The 2010 Breakfast at Daytona is an incredible opportunity for you to meet Chris and Denis and hear first-hand what it takes, and how it feels to be the fastest motorcyclist on the planet. Your attendance at the breakfast also helps to support the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum in its mission to preserve the history of motorcycling for all motorcyclists to enjoy.
