On 12 April 2014 Lee Behel set out from Mojave Airport to break two records, the 3,000m climb and the 3k speed run. Flying his V-8 powered George Pereira designed GP-5, he managed to reach 3,000 meters (or 9,842 feet), in exactly two minutes along with achieving a top speed of 372mph on a flat 3k run to take the records.
