| ExxonMobil Sponsor Guinness World Record

An Australian truck, the “Bandag Bullet” broke the Guinness World Record for
diesel truck speed on July 16, 2005, at the Queensland International Air Show,
held at the Bundaberg Airport in Australia. ExxonMobil was a sponsor and
supplied the engine oil for the world record-breaking effort.
Driven by Frank Gaffiero, the “Bandag Bullet,” a Kenworth T400 truck powered
by two V8 Detroit diesel engines, is the only conventionally powered truck to
achieve an average speed of 182.152 kilometers per
|
|
|
hour (113.184 miles per hour) over one kilometer from a standing start.
The "Bandag Bullet," has been recognized by the
Guinness World Records (TM) as the World's Fastest Diesel-Powered Truck.
Engine temperature during the record-breaking run reached approximately 100
degrees Celsius (300 degrees Fahrenheit) above typical operating conditions.
To protect his engine during the run, "Bandag Bullet" driver Frank Gaffiero
used Mobil Delvac heavy duty engine oil.

“Competing at these high speeds places extreme demands on my truck, so it’s
important for me to treat my engine with special care,” said Frank Gaffiero,
driver of the Bandag Bullet. “Mobil Delvac keeps my engine running long and
strong -- whether it’s breaking world records or helping me get my load
delivered on time.”
