Land Speed Record?
 
Does anybody know what the current record is for a turtle travelling from Chicago to Baltimore? I can't help but wonder if the current record can hold up to the upcoming attempt from the Blue Turtle. I'm hoping Dave makes it home in time for Carlisle, we need him to cook the burgers!!!!

The Blue Turtle just got porked with some Greek sausage so it should be moving quite a bit faster.

Don't let him over do it. Could mess with power to weight ratio.
Please note that a turtle is inherently aerodynamic.:cheers:

Here is a "spy" photo of the Blue Turtle and the escort vehicle sighted in State College, PA sometime after the final tuning session:
