AUSTRALIA’S 1000 MPH MISSION
The Challenge
World land speed record car Aussie Invader 5R is the world’s most powerful car ever constructed. Built in Perth, Australia, the project is led by Australian drag racing legend and land speed record holder Rosco McGlashan OAM. Aussie Invader 5R is an engineering marvel, having 200 times more power than a Formula One car. It can accelerate from zero to supersonic in less than 20 seconds.
Aussie Invader 5R is an incredible feat of innovation and engineering excellence. Its unique design drew on input from some of the world’s best engineers, aerodynamicists, and rocket scientists, allowing it to travel faster than any car has ever gone before. As the car enters its rocket engine testing phase, the team is working closely with New Zealand rocket company Snowdon Consulting Ltd.
We are also actively seeking financial backing to complete the testing phase and challenge for a new world land speed record. We are looking for dynamic companies to become a partner with us and help Aussie Invader 5R smash the world land speed record and push it to an incredible 1,000 mph (1,600 km/h).
