You might remember that last month Texan Leslie Porterfield was named AMA Female Rider of the Year after she broke multiple landspeed at the International Speed Trials. That fact is no more as Canadian Trillium Muir and team Nickel City Racing have regained the title of the World's Fastest Woman. Here’s the kicker, Trillium has only be riding motorcycles for 4 years.

Muir, a 28 year-old corrections officer, broke the land speed record by running a ECTA certified top speed of 239.36 mph on her purpose-built Hayabusa. The record breaking run was at*Maxton Mile race track in North Carolina, USA. She rode a tuned 2003 Hayabusa featuring a GT35R turbo from RCC turbos, Aims data logger, JE Pistons, Crower rods, MTC lock-up clutch, Elka shock, custom-built swingarm, RCC back cut transmission.

What’s next for the Canadian? The 400kph barrier, which for us Americans works out to be around*248.54 mph.
