In this exhilarating Larry Chen video, we witness the awe-inspiring journey of a record-setting land speed truck that's as unique as they come. Picture this: a truck that's not just a truck but a powerhouse of speed, tearing up concrete runways with a NASCAR chassis and a Dodge R5 motor churning out a whopping 850 horsepower. It's a beast on wheels, blending the best of NASCAR engineering with a 67 C10 Chevy body, creating a striking contrast between old-school charm and modern aerodynamics.

But what truly sets this speed demon apart is its backstory - a homage to family history in the oil industry, with a livery that tells a tale of generations past. The meticulous attention to detail extends to the interior, where a lightweight battery and original dash coexist in perfect harmony, showcasing a blend of NASCAR heritage and custom modifications. It's a symphony of speed and history, a fusion of past and present that propels this truck into the realm of automotive legends.

As the owner sets his sights on pushing the truck to its limits at Bonneville, with plans to hit a mind-boggling 220-225 mph, the truck undergoes rigorous wind tunnel testing to fine-tune its aerodynamics for the ultimate performance. This isn't just a vehicle; it's a work of art, a testament to passion, innovation, and a relentless pursuit of speed. Larry Chen's video captures the essence of this extraordinary machine, a true marvel that defies conventions and blazes a trail of its own in the world of land speed racing.
