The current record for this class is 146.1 mph. Julio and Brad have tried all season to get the record and came within less than 1/2 of 1 mile on November 17th 2002 at 145.662 mph. It was really a heart breaker but there is always next year. |
Brad helpin' Julio on with his gear. |
Cars are normally towed or pushed into the line up. Ophelia had the opportunity to be The Bean Bandits tow at the last meet. |
Land Speed cars are geared so high that they need to be pushed approx 30 - 40 mph; the momentum is used to take over the gears. |
