Default World LSVW speed record holder

Yours truly claims the LSVW world record speed attained on the flat. During MARCOT 98 at Stephenville NFLD I had an opportunity to see how fast one of those clunkers would go. I started at the far eastern end of runway 09/27 which is over 11,000 ft. long. I was able to get the truck up to 105km/hr (as shown on the speedometer) which is the fastest an LSVW has done without a push, tail-wind, or slope.
I'm still awaiting my commemorative plaque for the event!

CHIMO!

Derek H.
