cool video but the thing is he didnt go no where near 200mph. bi-planes wont do a 100mph and the truck barely past it on flight. think the tach is way of on the mph. great footage though but he might have went  a 150...maybe

@17kitchens Well I follow what you are stating here, but take a look at the 4:40 mark and watch the plane flying with him. It is not the bi-plane but a different aircraft. Sorry I do not recall what type it is. The bi-plane is actually flying by in the opposite direction. Maybe someone with more aircraft knowledge than myself can help us here.

@miraclevideojake The plane that flys next to the truck is an Extra-300, they use the same model aircrafts at Red Bull air races. It has an 300hp engine and it reaches the maximum speed of 408km/h ( 253mph) but the cruising speed is only 317km/h ( 196mph).

@miraclevideojake Yes, you're right. I think it's an Zivko Edge 540 Melissa flies. These aerobatic machines can reach up to 265 mph and I guess the usual cruise speed lays somewhere around 206 mph. So nothing is "way of" here ;) Btw amazing Video!!

@17kitchens That was a pretty slow run, considering that this truck holds the Guinness­ record for jet-truck speed at 376 miles per hour (605 kph).......at 222mph it just about ready for him to actually open the throttle.

@17kitchens that truck holds a world record of going 370 something mph, those airplanes can do 150-200 easy and it for sure went 200 mph, o and a speedometer reads speed, a tachometer reads engine rpms

@sniper002

Well I don't find them, but I do produce them. Hooked up with the team in the morning and they let me install two cameras. Guess I will go anywhere!
