JCB DIESELMAX HITS 350 MPH AND BREAKS OWN DIESEL LAND SPEED RECORD
Bonneville Salt Flats: Today the record-breaking JCB DIESELMAX achieved a stunning 350mph (563kph)* to break its own land speed record for diesel-powered cars set yesterday by Andy Green.

On Tuesday, JCB DIESELMAX became the world’s fastest diesel when Green drove it to an FIA-sanctioned speed of 328.767mph (526.027kph). Today he improved on that significantly with a new record of 350.092mph (563.418kph) after two passes in opposite directions, within one hour.

Voor Andy Green is dit traag !
Hij mag zich nu wel degelijk de snelste man op aarde noemen : kijk maar eens naar zijn beroep en palmares.

Het is off-topic maar ik wil het toch even vermelden. Na Lamborghini en David Brown een 3e tractorfabrikant in the autobusiness?

The JCB construction machinery company is reported to have ambitions beyond the world of diggers and its chairman Sir Anthony Bamford has indicated that it might be interested in buying the Jaguar brand from the Ford Motor Company, if Ford was willing to sell Jaguar on its own.

Een overname zou denk ik goed zijn voor autosportliefhebbers.
