Between the years of 1926 and 1961, one man from a small town in New Zealand dreamed of setting a land speed record on a 1920 Indian Scout. In 1962 at the Bonneville salt flats that man's dream finally came true.
On August 29, 2012, Confederate motorcycle collector James Hoegh successfully piloted his Confederate X132 Hellcat Combat prototype No 001 to an average top speed of 172.211 mph on the salts of Bonneville, making it the world's fastest big block American V-twin motorcycle ever.
