Primarily developed and tested at the Johnny Bohmer Proving Grounds at the 3-mile-long NASA Shuttle Landing Facility runway within the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the BADD GT is no ordinary hypercar. The BADD GT began as a 2006 Ford GT that has undergone nearly 2 decades of engineering refinement and continually set world records along the way. All while maintaining a USA street legal profile and achieving performance numbers typically reserved for purpose-built race cars or theoretical concepts and unproven vehicles. The BADD GT is a largely self-funded, grass roots project undertaken by Bohmer on a gentleman's bet that he could not make a Ford the fastest street legal car in the world.

Challenging the Automotive Giants While automotive brands like Bugatti, Koenigsegg, SSC and Hennessey continue to fight for top-speed supremacy, none have matched Johnny Bohmer's 310.8 MPH / 500.1 KPH record in a street-legal vehicle on a verified and professionally measured course. Despite these company’s immense resources, marketing might, and multi-billion-dollar operations, these manufacturers remain in the wake of the BADD GT’s legacy, a testament to what focused engineering, experience, and a relentless drive to be the best can achieve. “This isn’t just about bragging rights now,” says Bohmer. “It’s about rewriting what’s possible for a USA street-legal car. We’re proving that innovation, dedication, and precise testing can outpace the biggest names in the industry. The 310.8 MPH / 500.1 KPH run was just a test run and only the beginning. 330 MPH / 531 KPH is in reach, and we are making final preparations.” Built for the Streets, Tested for the Stratosphere What makes the BADD GT unique isn’t just its record breaking speed, it is entirely USA street legal. This is a fully registered vehicle complete with air conditioning, stereo with subwoofer, cup holders and regularly drives around South Florida rain or shine. The BADD GT was designed to set world records on the tarmac and then drive to the grocery store after. Johnny Bohmer and his team have spent tens of thousands of hours on aerodynamic testing, drivetrain optimization and data collection. Every run is carefully documented, with data reviewed by engineers and third-party verifiers to ensure transparency and authenticity. Looking Ahead The attempt at 330 MPH / 531 KPH is expected to take place in 2026, with full telemetry, video documentation, and safety protocols in place. As always, the run will be conducted under controlled conditions with third-party verification to ensure its credibility within the global automotive community. The next attempt isn't just about making history; it's about reshaping the narrative of speed and street-legal performance on a tarmac surface. “This is about proving real world results, beyond computer models and advertised theoretical top speeds.” Bohmer says. “We are showing what a small, dedicated team and a 2006 Ford GT is capable of. Just like the 24 hours of Le Mans in 1966, Ford overtook the automotive industry racing titans, and we are going to do it again.” For Johnny Bohmer and the BADD GT, the road to 330 MPH is in sight.
