1935 Mormon Meteor 🌪️ The Machine That Broke Speed Records for 50 Years
The Duesenberg Model SJ Mormon Meteor was one of the most extraordinary endurance racing machines ever created. Built for legendary driver Ab Jenkins and designed to dominate the Bonneville Salt Flats, this streamlined American speed monster combined a supercharged 420 cubic-inch Duesenberg inline-eight engine with revolutionary aerodynamic bodywork. Later evolutions, including the terrifying Mormon Meteor III powered by a Curtiss Conqueror aircraft engine, shattered endurance speed records that stood for decades. From 24-hour runs above 160 MPH to engineering innovations born directly on the salt flats, the Mormon Meteor remains one of the boldest and most legendary land-speed machines in automotive history. #Duesenberg #MormonMeteor #Bonneville #LandSpeedRecord #ClassicCars #SpeedRecord #VintageRacing #AbJenkins #RaceCars #AmericanCars #BonnevilleSaltFlats #AutomotiveHistory #Supercharged #AircraftEngine #RetroRacing Support the channel and get exclusive perks: / @youtubeonwhels
