[Fot] New Speed record (fwd)

[Robert M. Lang]

Hi,

This showed up on the wedge list. I thought it was apropos to our earlier
thread on salt racing. The livery is interesting and hopefully not
offensive to some of our list members who wear green and yellow.

This is an interesting story about a new speed record for a diesel powered
vehicle.  It has some British ties, and uses former 4 cylinder tractor engines
(although a bit larger at 5 liters).  Any deja vu??
