Electric Car Breaks 200 MPH, Sets New World Land Speed Record Here's the university link: http://news.byu.edu/14-sep-streamliner2014
The car competes in the "E1 streamliner" class, which has a weight limit of 1,100 pounds. Wow. Ohio State's Buckeye Bullet has gone much faster, but is also a much heavier EV streamliner due to more batteries, and competes in a different division.
