It's a shame about the old footage with no engine sound though!

The governing sporting body ANDRA placed a 160MPH restriction on Stan's Top Fuel Bike, leaving Stan no where to go because this was not a motorcycle engine.

So, instead of hanging up the suit, Stan came back with this Supercharged Suzuki, which he built from the ground up, and of course this time conformed, as it is obviously motorcycle powered  ;D
