At over 20 years old, the first Aerotech might seem like the geriatric grandpa of this group, but it's here for a good reason. In 1987 race-car legend AJ Foyt drove the Aerotech I to a closed course speed of 257.123 mph, a record that stands to this day. What really impresses me however, is that the engine was no more than a modified version of GM's 2 Litre Turbo Quad 4. Later versions of the Aerotech used a V-8 and broke plenty of other records, but they never quite managed to top AJ's mark.
