World's Fastest Dining Room Set

Perry Watkins of Buckinghamshire, UK, may have set a world speed record for a piece of furniture when he piloted a Queen Anne dining table with silver service for four people at 130 MPH:

The table, named "Fast Food", reached a top speed of 130mph and averaged 113.8mph, comfortably eclipsing the 92mph set by a sofa in 2007.

Mr Watkins expects to become the official world record holder for the fastest piece of furniture when his time is accepted by Guinness.

A 1994 Reliant Scimitar Sabre underneath the table, boosted by a nitrous oxide kit, provides the thrust for the makeshift vehicle.
