Wel<strong>com</strong>e to the home of the <strong>Venturi</strong><br />

<strong>Buckeye</strong> <strong>Bullet</strong><br />

The world's first hydrogen fuel cell powered<br />

landspeed streamliner.<br />

The <strong>Venturi</strong> <strong>Buckeye</strong> <strong>Bullet</strong> 2, nicknamed “La Jamais<br />

Contente” in tribute to the first vehicle to go faster than 60<br />

mph (100 km/h) in 1899, will establish a record for an<br />

Hydrogen Fuel Cell Streamliner in Bonneville Salt Flats this<br />

<strong>com</strong>ing September.<br />

This ground-breaking vehicle is designed and built entirely<br />

by <strong>Ohio</strong> <strong>State</strong> University students with the guidance and<br />

support of OSU faculty and industry sponsors.<br />

The <strong>Venturi</strong> <strong>Buckeye</strong> <strong>Bullet</strong> 2 program is taking landspeed<br />

racing to a new level with innovations in driver safety,<br />

driveline, electronics and packaging.<br />

<strong>Buckeye</strong> <strong>Bullet</strong> 2 is expanding the legacy of its predecessor,<br />

the <strong>Buckeye</strong> <strong>Bullet</strong> 1. <strong>Buckeye</strong> <strong>Bullet</strong> 1 currently holds both<br />

national and international landspeed records at 315 mph<br />

and 272 mph respectively and was the first electric vehicle<br />

to break the 300 mph barrier. The successes and setbacks<br />

provided by the <strong>Buckeye</strong> <strong>Bullet</strong> 1 program have set the<br />

current <strong>Buckeye</strong> <strong>Bullet</strong> 2 team up for success in 2007.<br />
