Is Jessi still involved with the NAE project?
I was wondering because she hasn't posted
anything on her Facebook page about your
new web site rollout.  She has almost 315K
likes, surely her popularity would be an asset
to your program.  Just wondering, go fast!

Jessi is still involved. She will be flying up for our engine/system checkout at the end of the month. She is going to start ramping up her media stuff so we can get more exposure and hopefully get some revenue generated. I have to raise a quick $25,000 to give to the BLM in order to move ahead with obtaining the needed permit to run at a lakebed in Nevada.

The latest chapter on the "behind the story of the NAE" has been posted. Here is the link to it......http://www.fromspeedtosound.com/story/trials-and-tribulations/

What is the plan for the year 2016?

[F104A]

On April 23rd we did a full function test of the engine and systems, including our data aquisition and radio communications and everything checked out with an A+.
I've been working very hard to get a permit (NEPA) to utilize the Diamond Valley lakebed in Nevada but to get the permit I still have a great deal of baseline environmental
data to provide to the BLM plus $25,000. If I can get that permit approved, that would open the DV to all of us other racers that want to utilize it for land speed runs.
So far, I can't get the support of any of the other racers that want to run toward the 500 mark. It seems a little short sighted to me as it can benefit all of us if we can
get the approval but so far I'm going it alone. I've also been looking at some other venues but none of them offer the distance and smooth surface that is available at DV.

The Eagle is ready to make some 600+ runs now and all we need is a track. Bonneville is just to thin and Black Rock is to rough. We're ready but our government isn't
giving us any help at all. Still looking!!!

Ed - Richard Brown, Jet Reaction builder/rider) from the UK will be sending a personal mail to you - watch out for it - regarding track sharing etc.

OK, waiting for it.

Ed,  What is the condition and length of Diamond Valley look like?

Some recent news from Microsoft and North American Eagle.

[Seldom Seen Slim]

Great sounding news, Ed.  I hope the project reaps some big rewards - $$ among them -- from this hookup with MS.  I look forward to watching the program develop further.

[ski123]

Bump!

Nice work getting on with Microsoft.  What happened with Lenovo?
Hopefully your test runs will all be funded well this season.
Now get the word out, or pay someone to do it for you.
Get out there and set some REAL records for once.  Go Fast USA!
