London, Sep.26 (ANI): Tiny Belle Wheeler has become the world's youngest drag racer.
Aged only eight, Belle, a four feet four inch schoolgirl passed a test to drive the powerful machine with only an hour's tuition the day after her birthday.
And yesterday, according to The Sun, just 48 hours later, she raced against drivers twice her age in the UK National Finals.
Belle was driving a 15foot US-made dragster capable of reaching 50 miles per hour in 12 seconds.
Belle competed at the Santa Pod track near her family home in Wellingborough, Northants, but had engine trouble. (ANI)
