Abstract
Â
To be able to go faster than anyone else is a dream held by many people, including the Vesco family, who set the current land speed record for a wheel-driven vehicle in their car The Turbinator.

Then by analysing the new power output of their modified engine, the possibility of exceeding 500 mph was explored.
