Blue FlameThe Blue Flame was the high-performing, ultra high-speed, rocket-powered vehicle which achieved the world land speed record on Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah on October 28 1970. The Blue Flame was constructed in Milwaukee, Wisconsin by Reaction Dynamics, a company formed by Pete Farnsworth, Ray Dausman and Dick Keller who had developed hydrogen peroxide rocket dragsters. The Blue Flame used a mix of hydrogen peroxide, pressurized helium and LNG (liquified natural gas) to eclipse previous speed records set with jet engine powered vehicles. The effort was sponsored by the The American Gas Association, with technical assistance from the Institute of Gas Technology of Des Plaines, IL. (references)
