new land speed record in an automobile of 310 mph bt GEORGE EYSTON at Bonneville Flats in Utah.
Captain George Edward Thomas Eyston MC OBE (28 June 1897 – 11 June 1979[3]) was a British racing driver in the 1920s and 1930s, and he broke the land speed record three times between 1937 and 1939. He was also an engineer and inventor.
He fitted a diesel engine from an AEC bus into a car built on a Chrysler chassis and used it to set high-speed endurance records at Brooklands, attaining 100.75 mph in 1933 and 106 mph in 1936. In 1935, he was one of the first British racers to travel to the Bonneville salt flats of Utah, with his 24- and 48-hour record-setting car Speed of the Wind. He is best known today for land speed records set in his car Thunderbolt.[13] Between 1937 and 1939 he set three new land speed records, wresting them from Malcolm Campbell's Blue Bird, but was twice bettered by John Cobb.
