Breaking News from the Bonneville Salt Flats
Friday, August 18

This morning at 8:22 AM the "BLOWFISH" delivered the required second run to secure the world record for Blown Fuel Competition Coup, engine class F.

At 255.5 MPH, George Poteet drove the car just under 25 mph faster than the previous record, which has stood for 16 Years!

"This is only the beginning!" an ecstatic Troy stated..."there is a lot more where that came from. Now we have the data to fine tune both power and aerodynamics. "Rad Rides by Troy will definitely be back on the salt!"

Congratulations go out to George Poteet plus the whole Rad Rides by Troy Team for a well deserved WORLD RECORD!!!!!!!!!
