Danny Thompson set a land speed record for piston-powered, wheel-driven cars at the Bonneville


On Saturday, he made a pass at 446.605 mph. He followed up on Sunday morning by going in the opposite direction at 450.909 mph, for an average of 448.757 mph.

That easily broke the record of 439.562 set in 2012, but it wasn’t easy, he had to steer out of a dangerous slide that occurred at 430 mph.
