Land speed record breakers in Lake Gairdner, South Australia. Remotely located in the Australian outback, the eerie silence on the flats is occasionally broken by the roaring engines, and the drivers and spectators quickly switch from a quiet meditative state into a speed euphoria. The combination of isolation, landscape and tremendously high temperatures quickly add up to a very surreal experience. Worth the painstaking drive, if you ever find yourself in the area and happen to be driving a loaded up 4x4. Seen on WIRED.
