Allegations of bullshit aside, doesn't a production car record have to belong to, you know, an actual production car? Might as well have the Thrust SSC team say "yeah we can produce one of these if you want" and bingo, new production car record.

Some bloke analysed the frequency of the Audio to calculate the rev drops between gears to infer ratios. The ratios came out as the stock published figures that make the speed they proportedly reached in 6th impossible.
And they had a chopper along side them at aledgedly 200mph in the 360 degree video.Top speed of the chipper is 180mph without a gimbal camera rig on it.
surely someone at ssc would have noticed that was impossible.
I'm firmly in the bullshit a mile high camp. And they'll be shitting bricks as now they have to do a real run.Oo___oO

Hasn't explained shit. Trying to handwave their bullshit story. No rational explanation because there isn't one.
If the driver was shaking with head in hands after the run and the car is only at 250-270mph then Goold luck finding someone to actually do 330 in it.Last edited by burn is weird; 02-11-20, 07:00 AM.Oo___oO

How fucking stupid are they thinking that the internetz wouldn't take their vid as gospel and quite rightly pull it apart.
The AV production team had one job, now they're saying 'derp we mixed up the footage derp'
Fuck off. They've been caught out.

How to speak for 3min37sec and say nothing. Low-rent Christian von Koenigsegg looking fucker.
FWIW, I hope they have another go and back up the speed, and do it safely. I don't think they will though.Originally posted by piss98I wish Kochie would get blown out to sea and never found, in fact most of those dumb cunts standing in the rain telling people not to stand in the rain need to get fucked. Stupid tart on the news last night talking to the weather guy "wow you look totally drenched there whateverthefuckhisnamewas." No shit you vapid bitch he is standing in a fucking cyclone.
