As we head into the 11/24 premiere of our MTOD-exclusive documentary about the quest for entry into the Australian 200 MPH Club, we thought it would be handy to refresh you on how speeds are measured and records are set in traditional land speed racing.

When you tune in on Friday (11/24) to see the MTOD-exclusive “200 Club” documentary, you’ll glimpse Freiburger riding in a strange contraption of a push truck that’s used to shove our land-speed-racing Camaro off the starting line at the salt flats in Australia.

Our week of Aussie Extras continues, leading up to the premiere of our 200-mph documentary on Friday, November 24, 2017.

As of last week, Roadkill completed filming on the last episode of season 6 and started in on season 7.

Steve Dulcich may be best known for co-hosting Roadkill Garage, but he’s also on the Engine Masters show and was the editor of Engine Masters magazine for ten years.
