Barney Oldfield's record run was 64 mph.  Set in Sept. of 1933 on a 
specially prepared AC U.

Thanks, Mattias.

This guys turning his plowing machine into a racer reminded me of:
1) Barney Oldfield's AC tractor (perhaps slower than the Terror)
promotion gig
http://www.firstsuperspeedway.com/articles/barney-oldfield-sets-tractor-record
and
2) Lamborghini unsuccessfully suggesting his tractor transmission to
Enzo Ferrari
http://www.pixcom.dk/Lamborghini/story.htm   .

Age test:  Would you like to drive the Terror?

And Ralph, thanks for the Roosty video link.  Am getting to recognize
parts of your path across the fields and am guessing that bull is a Red
Poll.
