Been done with my Std Cirrus, by previous owners. The current 750Km Standard
class triangle record in South Africa is still in the name of our club founder
in a Std Cirrus.(Only 106.7Km/h though)

Now, when I have done 700+ Km (in my Cirrus) I might have something to crow about...

Good to hear of great exploits in aircraft like this - helps to dispel the myth
that you need infinite span and budget. (Occasionally accompanied by
commensurate ego)
