Jun - World Records

World Records

In 1990 JUN attended the Bonneville Speed trials at the Bonneville Salt Flats (see also Bonneville Speedway) with a Z32 Nissan 300ZX they had extensively modified. JUN was able to record a speed of 373 km/h. This was a world-record for a “road”-going car.

JUN returned a year later with the intent of improving on their world record. This time they used a JUN-Blitz Nissan 300ZX. In the E/BMS class, JUN set a record 419.84 km/h, becoming world champions for that particular class, later reclassified as E/BGMS. This record remains unbroken. This is verified by the SCTA (Southern California Timing Association) website, Bonneville records page, under Blown Gas Modified Sports, ; this page was checked July 2009.

JUN has also competed in the JGTC series as well as in drifting in Japan and the USA.

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or records:

    For what will it profit them if they gain the whole world but forfeit their life?
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 16:26.

    Although crowds gathered once if she but showed her face,
    And even old men’s eyes grew dim, this hand alone,
    Like some last courtier at a gypsy camping-place
    Babbling of fallen majesty, records what’s gone.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
