I would probably say that this was the pinnacle of the McCombs racing efforts. I was able to travel to the salt flats in Utah just about every time my Dad and Grandfather went down there, even a couple times when we did not run the truck. This was a vision that my grandfather had to set a land speed record, and he and my dad did it many times, I believe improving the record every year. The engine came from the pull tractor, a Detroit Diesel 12V-71

In '93 the Endeavor III holds the world speed record of 223.084 mph.
Did the team ever make it to the 250 mph mark?
