List,

We have had at least one rotary LSR vehicle in Britain - Alex MacFadzean's
motorcycle streamliner 'Penetrator', which was powered by a turboed Norton
Rotary and ridden by Mick Booys set the British Motorcycle Land Speed Record
at 200.9mph over a two-way flying 1/4mile on a runway about the same length
at Maxton.
