The JUN-BLITZ Bonneville Z32 holds the E/BMS class land speed record of 419.84 km/h (260.87 mph) set at the 1995 Bonneville Speed Trial. The vehicle was built as a partnership between JUN Auto and BLITZ. This record remains unbroken. In 1990 JUN’s first Z32 went 339.2 km/h at their Yatabe test course and hit 373 km/h after some tuning at Bonneville.

Read the full article. The car is capable of 400+ km/h. It’s 350km/h was the average it ran when it was still racing before it underwent further modification.

I never knew Wangan midnight was a true story to an extent.

Wasn’t it a RUF Yellowebird that was painted black, thus making it the “Blackbird”?

Nope, it is a standard 930 turbo. It was given the name Blackbird once the writer of Wangan Midnight created his books.
