The Raminator : World's Fastest Monster Truck
Highlights
The Raminator is a massive monster vehicle. It's a Ram truck with a 565 cubic inch supercharged Hemi engine, 10 feet tall, 12.5 feet wide, and 66-inch tyres that stands 10 feet tall, 12.5 feet wide, and has 66-inch tyres. The engine was taken from a funny automobile and produces 2,000 horsepower. Unfortunately, no fuel economy information has been provided, but forget about miles per gallon: each mile will require a lot of gallons. The latest in a long line of monster trucks created by the Hall brothers since the original Raminator emerged from the garage in 2005, this version cost roughly $150,000 (1,11,92660 Indian Rupees).
Guinness World Record-
Driver Mark Hall and the Hall Brothers team achieved a Guinness World Mark for the World's Fastest Monster Truck by attaining a speed of 99.1 mph, breaking the previous record of 96.8 mph. Despite failing to reach the desired speed of 100 mph, the team was able to claim the title of world record holders. The racing team, as well as its sponsor, were overjoyed. Most likely, the Ram truck firm was thrilled as well.
Awards
As America's fastest-growing truck brand, the Ram Truck brand has been a long-time sponsor of the fastest monster truck, the Raminator. Rammunition, which has been sponsored by Ram since 2002, and Raminator, the 2014 Monster Truck Nationals Champion, are two of the Ram-sponsored monster trucks. The monster truck it sponsors, Mopar Muscle, was revealed in 2014. The Hall Brothers Racing Team, based in Champaign, Illinois, owns and operates the whole fleet of monster trucks. Raminator has been crowned MTRA "Truck of the Year" an unprecedented eight times since 1996, with Mark Hall, Raminator's driver, receiving nine MTRA "Driver of the Year" awards and Crew Chief Tim Hall receiving five MTRA "Mechanic of the Year" awards.
Tim Hall, President and Crew Chief of Hall Brothers Racing, commented, "Taking on the challenge of achieving a world record was an experience we will never forget." We've been able to add to our list of accomplishments thanks to Ram and Mopar, and we're happy to be a Guinness World Records holder.
The Circuit of The Americas, a multi-purpose facility and 3.4-mile race track in southeast Austin, was chosen as the site for this attempt at the record. The Ram monster trucks compete in racing and freestyle events throughout the year, as well as touring the country, providing hundreds of thousands of fans of all ages ride-alongs and car-crushing displays at dealerships.
