This land speed car was built in my home garage in 2011 by Roger Beckman, Mark Leonard and me for the 2011 Bonneville Speedweek event. The Procharger was added in 2012. We have used 540 to 580 Merlin blocks with CFE and Dart heads. The car has set 6 speed records at El Mirage dry lake (236 mph) and 3 speed records at Bonneville (267 mph). The 267 at Bonneville last week got a red hat for another member of our team. Please note that this 267 mph record was set with a stock bodied Camaro running race gas, not an altered. Highest speed with the BC Landspeed Racing Camaro this year: 277mph on August 21st at the Bonneville salt flats. Tim Cox
