UVU LAND SPEED RACE TEAM has for spent the past year re-engineering six-time XO/GCC world class record holder, Bombshell Betty. Betty’s owner, Don Cash Jr, passed away on a Mt Everest descent in 2019. His daughter, Danielle Cash Cook, will pursue the goal of 200 mph on the Bonneville Salt Flats, picking up where her father left off. Our student team members have enjoyed collaborating with Don Cash, Sr.
Throughout this project, student team members have had an unequaled opportunity to advance their skills in diagnostics, mechanics, electronics, aerodynamics, and fabrication.
