Rosco McGlashan Is Ready To Make A New Record | Aussie Invader 5R

Could Australia become home to the fastest car on Earth? 🇦🇺🚀 In this episode of Aussie Garage, we sit down with legendary Australian land speed racer Rosco McGlashan OAM, the man behind the incredible Aussie Invader 5R — a 200,000 horsepower rocket-powered machine designed to break the 1,000 mph (1,600 km/h) land speed barrier. Rosco shares his remarkable journey from building wild V8 motorcycles and rocket-powered go-karts to becoming Australia's land speed record holder and creating one of the most ambitious engineering projects ever attempted. We take an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of the Aussie Invader 5R, exploring its rocket engine, advanced aerodynamics, unique fuel system, custom aluminium wheels, safety systems, cockpit technology, and the incredible engineering that could make history for Australia.
