Additional information:

This racing Falconer L6 was built to power Dennis Varni's Speed Nymph streamliner into the 300 mile-per-hour club in August 2010 with a final run of 317.7 mph. Additional runs in 2011 yielded even higher speeds, and for 2012, further runs are planned to see if the Speed Nymph can go even faster.
