232 mph would be hard to believe.

Yeah, I think this is poor reporting, and it was 332kph on sand, not 332mph. In one of the articles, it talks about a goal of 200mph on sand and needing 750hp to go 200mph on tarmac, but needing 1000hp on sand to do the same. Apparently, they were able to get the engine up to 1200hp, but then had to run it at 1000hp (850 at the wheels) due to being on sand. There's no way that they managed 300mph on sand with the motor detuned. And 332kph is just a bit over 200mph. And they've credited the guy with being the only guy that's gone over 200mph on sand on a motor cycle and in a car.
