A new Guinness World Record is now official, set at 171.96mph!
We are proud top be a part of this great story and project.
Words below from Nic Case:
This record was run in December of 2012.
In March of 2013 we ran again with no improvement.
As a result of this & the fact I turned 50 - I retired from speed-running.
Then
On April 13th 2013 , My 17 year old nephew Chris Casey was killed by a Hit-and-Lie driver. In the weeks following, I had a re-think about my retirement, and decided to continue in Chris's honor. I applied to Guinness for the December run. I dedicate this record to my nephew Chris. From now on, all runs are to celebrate his short life.
Records are made to be broken
