its all here www.jcbdieselmax.comsome cool vid too, mad seeing them lose the chute last week! I'm guessing they will go even faster during the week. They did 330 last week, weren't on full throttle, and the engines designed for the LSR went in at the start of this week |

prodblem is that 'tractors' are limited to 28mph... jcb got around this with the fast track saying it was a 'hgv'.... but thats why your behind them all the time.
WEY HEY! go jcb! I'm not sure I'm liking this diesal revolution tho.

Yeah! ;D But I can already hear all the nutty environmental bods going "what's the point" like they did with SSC It is fantastic that it has gone from first being driven under its own steam to uping the record by over 100mph in just a month  A couple of pics from when we saw it on Top Gear...   |

The fasted car in the world is a hire car, any hire car!
Unless this JCB thing was Hired to Mr Green, It can't be the fastest in the world ;-)
