Hi Ernest,
 
He will not be the first to upgrade the Vne.  Tracy Saylor turns about 243 mph around the course. Hopefully they test it at altitude with chute.

I don't mean to butt my nose in where it doesn't belong, and I don't
know much about those RV-thingies you guys are flying around in, but
didn't you say you were up against a Vne of 210 in the last race?  Have
you added some duct tape since then, or have you 're-rated' your airplane?
