the real thing...

Built in 1962 by Romeo Palamides (who also built "The Untouchable" dragster), and driven by Glenn Leasher, this was the fifth jet powered vehicle in LSR history.

It all ended in a fatal tradgedy on it's fourth run, when it crashed at over 250mp/h - and Leasher lost his life.

A far more in-depth account of the Infinity can be found on Ugo Fadini's website.
