Speed driver Chris Raschke died while attempting to break the land speed record during the Bonneville Speed Week event in Utah on Sunday.

The last racing death Sullivan recalled at the flats came in 2016 when Sam Wheeler, a renowned land speed motorcycle racer, crashed at 200 mph (321 kilometers) when the high-performance bike he was testing fish-tailed and went airborne.

A driver trying to set a land speed record died Sunday after he lost control of his “Speed Demon” rocket-like vehicle when he reached a staggering 283 mph.
