Nissan 1 Hour Challenge Update:
Nissan 1 Hour Challenge Update:
Nissan Proving Grounds
Casa Grande, AZ
At approximately 6:20 am on July 2nd, 2006, 20 years after winning the Dupont prize, Fast Freddy Markham set his 20th world record; winning the prestigious Dempsey - MacCready Hour Record Prize. Fast Freddy covered a distance of 53.43 miles in one hour, bettering the previous record by over 1 mile. Fast Freddy and the Easy Racers team received the $18,000 prize for the fastest one hour in history. Over $40,000 was awarded to the participants. It was a fantastic event and Fast Freddy proved to the world that after more than 3 decades of racing he’s still a world class athlete.
Pictures and video will be added to the Easy Racers website over the next couple days.
Thanks Everyone!
Gabriel DeVault
