Oct. 13, 2014. Watkins Glen, New York
Former formula car racer Mike Benjamin took his 1999 Vehicross to a new class record at this famed track. This particular Vehicross was specially modified to fit into the rare Vehicross with a Dagger Blackwater II kayak on a custom rack, front and rear receiver hitches, 22" wheels with cheap Chinese tires class. The world record lap time has now been set at 4:27 minutes.
When Mike was asked about the new record he said, "I feel pretty safe that this record will stand for awhile. This is the fasted time I have ever set at this particular track in any vehicle, ever!"
When Guiness World Book of Records was contacted about this specific record their response was "huh?" Further showing how significant this event was in the world of motoring.
