On March 3, 1927 with an improved Babs, Parry-Thomas returned to Pendine to regain his own world land speed record that had been broken just weeks earlier by Malcolm Campbell on the same beach. On February 4th. Campbell set the land speed record (in an average of two runs) at 174.883 mph (281.447 km/h)
Parry-Thomas has an exceptional first run, was reported at 180mph (289.682 km/h), however a spectator walked through the timing beam unfortunately voiding this run. Parry-Thomas went for a second attempt and during his return run, he lost control and the car flipped killing him. As a mark of respect, following the inquest, Babs was buried in the dunes at Pendine Sands.
