I quite enjoyed it,although I see your point about the over hamming it,,compared to most program's on the telly,it's quite tame.
I'm a paramedic and I cringe at some of the crap they peddle out about our job.
Luckily,Guys personality shines through,and so does the Indian hospitality and ingenuity. .

"The bike which Martin plans to use in his record attempt is a 2015 Triumph Rocket streamliner which has a carbon Kevlar monocoque construction with two turbocharged Triumph Rocket III engines. The motorcycle is over 25 feet long, 2 feet wide and 3 feet tall and runs on methanol.
Final test runs are planned on the Bonneville salt flats later this month before the record attempt which is scheduled to take place between 23-27 August."

Speed week is cancelled, that's that then, unless they find somewhere else to run it.
The SCTA President/Race Director Bill Lattin & the BNI Chairman Roy Creel spent this morning (July 20th) on the salt. The most they could find was 2 1/4 miles of salt suitable for a safe race course. The rest of the salt flats are either wet or wet and muddy. If the wet salt gets dry, future events could be possible.
