Earl is right, the capabilities of the Lightning would allow someone with foresight, planning, and determination (like Earl) to set another World Record for the Lightning. And you wouldn't even need to go for his exact record - just pick any two cities that don't have a current speed record between them in the category that the Lightning is in, and go for it. I am sure Earl would be more than willing to add his expertise to the effor t to get you started, explain the required steps, and help with specific details. Surely someone out there flying a Lightning would like to have their name in the World Record Book - like World Record Earl. Earl will be signing autographs at Sun N Fun - free of charge.
