Speed on the Salt

  1. This image shows the Carbinite LSR streamliner, a land speed record vehicle designed to break the 500 mph barrier with piston power.

    The car was involved in a violent crash on September 15, 2019, while accelerating to speeds approaching 450 mph.

    Driver Rob Freyvogel sustained serious injuries in the crash, and as of late 2023, continued to work on rehabilitation for physical and mental capacities.

    The project was a grassroots engineering effort featuring a twin-turbo 8.1-liter V8 engine.
