Brent Hajek in Hot Rod Magazine
Local race car enthusiast Brent Hajek and a crew of thrill seekers stormed the Bonneville Salt Flats Speedway to break a land speed record. Brent, Danny Thompson and crew attempted the record in a 2008 E85 powered FR500C Ford Mustang. The FR500C was equipped with a 5.4L Ford GT block, heads and various performance parts from Ford Racing.Brent was the mastermind and financier of the project. Ford Motor Company supported the effort with parts, test facilities and engineering.
The Ford Mustang was able to hit a top speed of 252.78 MPH once, but was unable to repeat that speed during this run. The crew is scheduled to return to the salt later this year!
Hot Rod Magazine has done a cover story on the record in the December issue out now. Brent Hajek is a race car owner, driver and racing enthusiast. The Hajek Motorsports Museum is located in Ames, Oklahoma in the old Ames school building.
