03 November: Bonneville back on track Record breaker to run on Friday 4 November. The car that will spearhead B.A.R Honda's eagerly anticipated Bonneville 400 record attempt will run for the very first time tomorrow, Friday 4 November. As the world famous Salt Flats are still too wet to stage any record attempts, driver Alan van der Merwe will debut the specially-prepared V10 B.A.R Honda at Mojave Airport in California. The team, however, is stressing that this is not an official attempt, although it plans to run the car as hard as possible on the 10,000-foot tarmac runway. “The most important thing is we check that all the systems on the car are working properly,” explained a spokesman. “There are a lot of new bits on it that we need to assess. It will be an important occasion, but this is just part of the journey. Setting an official F1 land speed record at Bonneville, via the average of out-and-back runs through a measured mile, is still our number one goal - even if we have to wait until next year to do it.” Latest Formula 1 News from B.A.R Honda: Honda announce test driver lineup for 2007 (15/11/2006)Valencia Test Report (02/02/2006) Valencia Test Report (01/02/2006) Valencia Test Report (31/01/2006) Barcelona Test Report (27/01/2006) Barcelona Test Report (26/01/2006) Barcelona Test Report (25/01/2006) Honda unveils new F1 challenger (25/01/2006) Jerez Test Report (20/01/2006) Jerez Test Report (19/01/2006) More news from BAR Honda F1
