2012 Sea Lion Prototype Amphibious World Record Competition Vehicle
|
Sea Lion is currently configured to be World’s Fastest Amphibious land speed vehicle. The transaxle is geared for speeds in the 180 mph range. The car has an extremely small frontal area and very aerodynamic shape. It has great potential to hold the land record for many years to come.
The water speed is currently limited by horse power, and it is up to the next owner, as to how extreme the next power plant should be. The current engine is a Mazda Rotary 13b (1974 –smog exempt). The engine should be upgraded to a Renesis Rx8 unit, and the old engine saved for an SB100 registration, at some later date, if that becomes a goal for the owner.
