A diesel powered car has just broken a land speed record at Bonneville.

Over 300 mph from existing tractor engines modified in three months for the 
run,

I believe there is an engineer in Europe, maybe Germany or Norway (?) that is 
making a diesel powered motorcycle using an existing motor from a 3 door 
hatch back, in the article I read, I believe he said the gearbox was the biggest 
single problem to overcome.
