From http://ralfbecker.com/ which might sound familiar, Ralf is the man who makes ChromJuwelen.com
I read about this speed record just last week, but I can't recall where. Thinking a bit about it, doesn't it makes sense to go for speed records on frozen lakes? You won't have to worry about overheating, if you break anything, you don't have to get towed... just pushed, and there are a lot more frozen lakes than other land speed venues (the Australian dry lake Eyre and Gairdner, El Mirage, Bonneville, and Black Rock are the only areas I can think of that you have a long shut down area. The Maxton Mile, the New England Mile, and Ormond are limited if I recall correctly)

Advertised for £350,000.00 in 1991. In todays money, according to http://www.measuringworth.com/ukcompare/result.php?use%5B%5D=CPI&use%5B%5D=DEFIND&use%5B%5D=WAGE&use%5B%5D=GDPCP&use%5B%5D=GDPC&year_late=1991&typeamount=350000&amount=350000&year_source=1991&year_result=2006 was worth £771,303.41 in 2006 ... about what they were asking for a Bugatti Veyron. Yeah, the million US dollar car. So why is it remarkable that it cost equivalent to a Veyron? I just found one up to sell at $85 thousand. 1/10th the original asking price.
