I don't know which record Lance is chasing, but I would guess by the look of his bike, it's the standard-bike/Eddy M record.
From what I read, Lance seems to be chasing the "HiTec" type of record, he and his team are talking about wind tunnels, special bike, even constructing either in Colorado or Utah a temporary Velodrome (high altitude) for this sole purpose.
However, either way Lance has all the skills and talent to have a good crack at it.
