Their partnership will involve

Andy, a mechanic and drag racer with his team conceived and built Victor 3, Europe's Fastest Street Legal Drag Race Car. It is the latest in a line of street legal cars named 'Red Victor'.  The work on the present car, a 4,000bhp modified 1972 Vauxhall VX4/90 FD VXR spec took three years.  It is taxed, insured and can be legally driven on the street. In establishing the European record it reached a top speed of 250.9mph over a mile covering the distance in 6.02 seconds.

Neil is holder of the European, British and Commonwealth bicycle speed record of 149mph. He is a 44-year-old architect now wants to ride faster than the 183mph world record!  For the record attempt he will be on a £10,000 custom built bike and this is the culmination of over 20 years work by Neil and his team.
