Cool Here is another intresting tid bit I found online. I have noticed that ALOT of land speed record holders use water injection, is there somthing about extreamly high speed that makes it better? The only thing I can think of is the fact that they run so much hp for such a long ways, maby they have to have somthing for the extra cooling. I saw the land speed record for a motorcycle also and he was using water injection as well.

2/7/05 234 MPH! 911 Porsche uses Boost Cooler® to set World Record!

Ein Porsche 911 vom Tuner 9ff hat einen neuen Geschwindigkeitsrekord für straßenzugelassene Fahrzeuge aufgestellt – 388 km/h.

Jan Fatthauer has just set the record for the World’s Fastest 911 Porsche using a Stage-2 Boost Cooler®. This car reportedly not only injected water/methanol but sprayed the intercoolers as well. See www.autobild.de for full details.
