1987

Running on nothing but straight gasoline, this Banks twin-turbocharged Firebird scorches the Salt at 287 mph to become the new World's Fastest Passenger Car. Despite dozens of challenges, Banks 'Bird held the title for 10 years.

1990

Despite possessing the aerodynamics of a brick, Banks/GMC Syclone pickup truck tops 210 mph, becoming both World's Fastest Pickup Truck and the first pickup to exceed 200 mph.

EDIT:

http://bankspower.com/im_SuperRod_Sept04.cfm

"By 1986, Banks had a twin-turbo Trans-Am that went 268 mph at Bonneville, and in 1987 he upped that speed to 283 mpb. That's 283 mph in a car that still had a radio and power steering. In fact, the Trans-Am was tractable enough that you could drive it to the grocery store if you so desired"
