Wishing you the very best of luck with your steam car challenge. What's your current status with the project? Maybe we could arrange a head to head one day, steam versus wind!! @Peter Phillips Hi Peter, thanks for your (and the many other Windjet supporters) support over the years, it has been very much appreciated. I am still doing my best to get this one in the bag, and much closer than before, I hope you would agree! I don't see it as bad luck, just an indication of how hard this record is. But I am confident everything will come together shortly. There is nothing that persistence will not overcome! Hi all, Richard Jenkins here with some thanks!

You have had much bad luck with the weather over the years. I'm hoping all your past disappointments will be a distant memory within a few weeks! A 127 mph pass is in the cards! Good luck. Peter. Vancouver, Canada. Richard,
