FIRST ever 503 MPH run by a wheel drive car on October 2, 2018 on the Bonneville Salt Flats. Driver Dave Spangler drove Team Vesco's TURBINATOR II to a top speed of 503.332 mph. His last mile time was an outstanding 493 mph at the World Finals event hosted by SCTA/BNI.

In many ways, this is more impressive than just strapping a rocket on a sled. This is an actual car-like vehicle. As opposed to a missile with wheels and a cockpit slapped on to it. ✌️

Its great to see wheel driven cars running at these speeds, using either piston jet. I have fallen out of love with the unlimited jet class as it seems too close to flying and doesn't pose the same technical challenges as the wheel driven. There is also the appeal that these people just love vehicles working out of home garages and hot rodding. That "it's open to anyone" carries weight. Don Vesco was in the shadows being a nearly man all through out his life and just a few years before his death due to cancer he got the wheel driven record in "the turbinator"

Congrat's Team Vesco! This is such a huge record. Calvin, your uncle helped me out when I was a very young motocrosser for several years I wore the Veso Yamaha jersey with pride. I have nothing but great memories and respect for him and the entire Vesco family always a class act and nobody does a better job of thinking and building outside of the box. The Vesco name and Bonneville are one, PERIOD!!

at some point you're no longer a car, you're just a rocket skimming the ground. Even at the point we are at now a great deal of the force require is used up in downforce which is silly. You might as well put little wings on the thing and take off.@@jasonbourne1596

It's not a piston engine. It's a gas turbine Lycoming T55-L-712 engine that turns all 4 wheels with 5,000 horsepower. This is now the fastest wheel driven car in the world at an average speed of almost 500 miles per hour. As a note, Mickey Thompson's son became the fastest piston engine wheel driven car in late 2018 with his father's old and famous Challenger II car at over 450 miles per hour.

Now this is a real car. One driven through its wheels, even though it probably has a bit of residual thrust helping it. The jet propelled land speed record "cars" are frauds.

"The jet propelled land speed record "cars" are frauds." No they aren't, getting something on wheels to go 600-700 mph regardless of being jet or wheel powered takes more balls than you would ever dream of having.
