Hi Everyone,

This past weekend we broke the SCTA "H/PS" class land speed record in our S13 240SX. For those of you who might not be familiar with land speed racing classes, "H/PS" is basically a class for stock bodied cars with a turbocharged engine of 1.0-1.5L. We designed and built a "SR15VET 20V" engine so we could specifically run in this class.

On our first shakedown pass we were timed at 165.510 MPH, which was over 30 MPH over the existing record. We know we can go a lot faster, but are saving the motor for Bonneville next month where we are aiming to set a record at over 200 MPH. For more details, read up on the link below. Enjoy,
