If it can hold enough kilos, it could be the car of choice for those who like traveling between Miami and New York several times a week.

OK but I’m still saving my penny jar for one of the 500 Bugatti Chiron! Almost there!

Millions of dollars wasted on something that has no use.

I believe my young daughter drove that fast once in a PT Cruiser, with me putting my feet through the floor and holes in the dash from my fingers.

Returning to Colorado from Yosemite recently in a Porsche we drove across central Nevada on Highway 50. Designated the ‘Loneliest Highway in the US’ (also the same route the Pony Express followed) there are many stretches that are a straight line extending out as far as the eye can see ... excellent road to hit 100 mph plus speeds on for some distance.

This supersonic car is trying to smash the land speed record

Image result for Bloodhound Supersonic Car

The Bloodhound Supersonic Car just completed its first public test, reaching 210 mph in eight seconds on a 1.7-mile airport runway in England.

It’s powered by an engine usually found on combat aircraft, which gave it a 54,000-thrust horsepower.

That’s equal to the combined output of at least 360 family cars. Eventually, a rocket engine will be attached to the car, with the goal of smashing the current land speed record of 763 mph to hit the 1,000 mph milestone.

That is fast.

A lot of people are not aware that superfast cars are not just European. America has had the world’s fastest car in the past also. The Ultimate Aero was fastest from 2007 to 2010. It was made by people involved in the Shelby design company.
