The Worlds Motorcycle Speed Trials are held each year at the famous Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. The event is sanctioned by the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM), the world competition sanctioning body, and the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA), the national competition sanctioning body. This is the event you must run in order to qualify for an actual Motorcycle World Land Speed Record. Last year the MarkerTek team captured the 125cc Partially Streamlined record, piloted by Chief Designer, Scott Kolb.

For 2007 the MarkerTek team brings additional sponsors, machines, team members and riders in the hopes of capturing even more high speed glory.
