heres him and his article
http://www.motorcycle-usa.com/499/1510/Motorcycle-Article/World-s-Fastest-CBR600RR.aspxOne of the most-popular classes at Bonneville is the 650cc division because of recent advances in technology and the huge sales numbers. This is what drew Falkner/Livingston Racing from their normal small-bore 50cc and 125cc two-stroke classes to the much more difficult 650cc world dominated by four-strokes. They sought the services of Jason McVicar, a Canadian who has 22 land speed records to his credit. The 34-year-old is the current record holder in the 1000cc Altered Partial-Streamliner (i.e. fairing) Fuel class with a two-mile average speed of 215.592 mph set on his customized Yamaha R1.

He understands that you have to learn something about engine performance on every single run. Land speed racing is as much about time management and strategy than anything else. You can only get so many runs in during the week, and you have to use your time wisely."
This October McVicar added to his list of accomplishments when he set a record in the 650cc Altered Partial-Streamliner Fuel class at 178.438mph. This qualified his Falkner/Livingston Honda CBR600RR to become the first 600cc non-streamliner to qualify for the prestigious long course reserved for vehicles that go over 175 mph.
"We took a very smart approach to this project and didn't go overboard with a lot of exotic parts," said McVicar. "We made the speed through tuning and exploring the best hop-up parts offered by the aftermarket. We used a Micron full exhaust, Hyper Pro steering damper, Race Tech-modified suspension, Nitrous Express nitrous system and a Dynojet Power Commander fuel-management system...................
