Raminator Is Officially The World's Fastest Monster Truck: Video

The Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, hosts Formula One and World Endurance Championship events, but recently Chrysler's Ram truck division used it for something a little more low brow. The Ram-sponsored Raminator just became the world's fastest monster truck, hitting 99.1 mph in a run down the course's main straight. Naturally, a representative from the Guinness Book of World Records was on hand to confirm the achievement.

Run by the Hall Brothers Racing Team out of Champaign, Illinois, the Raminator beat the previous record of 96.8 mph with driver Mark Hall at the wheel. Hall said he had hoped to crack 100 mph, but was still happy to take home the record.
