      Only tesla is allowed to bullshit like that. This called "an excel sheet car". Also the problem is that the boss knows how to use excel, but that is about it. The way it works is engineers present something and should never, ever say "theoretically" because from that on it will be the goal and in the marketing material. Which in this case turned into an actual speed run... which unfortunately does not work like marketing bullshit.

      @@alanwatts8239 , no it's utter bullshit, but based on how stupid you appear to be you would not know that.
      Shmee, Robert, Mischa, and Engineering Explained didn't actually disprove anything, what they did was corroborate the speed Ollie Webb obtained in the first run.
      What each of them failed to figure out is that the video was a composite of two runs made that day, the final speed was super imposed on the right, which explains the reason for the blurred speedo, the footage used was from the first run where 287 mph was obtained by Ollie Webb, which explains why each of them reached extremely similar numbers in their final calculations.
      All they did was stir up shit where none existed, the car may have made another run and reached a speed that is faster than Koenigsegg's number but guess what?
      No matter what those fools concluded, the car is not a street legal car then and is not now, which means the record is still technically in Koenigsegg's corner.
      I will defend SSC but they do not have the record, and won't until the car is homologated.
      By the way, Hennessey's own car isn't homologated either so unless it reaches homologation standards it won't hold the record, no matter how fast the car is.
      Oh yea, I almost forgot, there is the whole issue of SSC not actually using the video as a legitimate claim, that was Top Gear.
      I was up the morning it was posted, the video came from Top Gear, not SSC, so spare me the bullshit.

    This was great! Very good information and analysis Tim! Initial impression is that the only realistic explanation (if it exists) is the video not matching the actual final run. Maybe they forgot to hit the record button? As for the gearing issue, I wonder (haven't ran the numbers yet) how much the rear tire diameter would have to expand (from g-forces) to match the target top speed. Maybe it's possible (for example with top fuel cars, though a significantly different tire, you can see the diameter of the tire changed dramatically during a run). I'd assume there would be a little expansion, though obviously no where near as much as you'd see in top fuel. Bigger diameter would mean your actual speed would be higher than speedometer reads.

      2) They've blocked comments on all their IG posts since Shmee150 uploaded this video.
      3) The SSC film that they've been talking about still hasn't been released yet by Driven Plus - the company that created the video, and who are heavily promoting their new app on the back of this fake footage. Driven Plus sent the footage to Top Gear first slapping a reminder in the video for everyone to go sign up to the app. This all seems wrong now in hindsight since it's on the back of fake footage.

    The SSC did not start flooring it until 200MPH, listen to the engine. At this point, manufacturers have mentioned that races are at the top end, 200MPH, and up. The driver gradually accelerated to 200MPH. and only then planted his foot down. Nothing holds traction with 1750HP. 0 to 200 is pointless at that power.
    PLUS, they had a run on opposite sides of the highway. Koenigsegg had a short distance to travel than the SSC who had a longer route at the end of the top speed run...
    Just take a look at Koenigsegg's view... mountains, signs, all different, because they had a top speed run in opposite directions.
    And the driver mentioned this " the SSC's speedo stops at 300MPH but had no limiter for the run, and the only thing he had in the car to measure speed was the GPS antenna from Guinness World Record. " They used their own laptop but used the GWR's GPS antenna to measure speed as input. Which is why you see the SSC Tuatara logo.

      ​@@nicosand86 Jerod Shelby may be the founder and CEO of SSC but it doesn't mean he does his own editing and videography. He has a trusty, dedicated team of professionals to make his videos.
      Therefore, it could've been a mistake from the editors that had shown a video of a run not matching the speed measurement of a different run. Needless to say, I don't believe the SSC crew wanting this controversy, it could've easily been a mistake from management.
      Nonetheless, Jerod did say he will do another run to accommodate non-believers and prove them how quick the Tuatara really is. The car accelerates like none other thanks to that beast of a motor built by NRE, the aerodynamics drag coefficient of 0.279, and the gearing of that CIMA transmission. There's no doubt this thing is capable of +300MPH.

The videos was confrmed to be stiched together multiple runs for some reason (cock up by the editing company, so any review of it is a waste of time as your not seeing the true run), this has been confirmed. So basicly its a waiting till the telemetry can be reviewed and confirmed.
