*Not a world record for a production car*

People keep leaving that part out. He has to build 200 cars to make it an official production car. He has stated many times he will only build 199 of them. The Veyron will holds the Guiness World Record because Hennessey failed to do a second validation run in the opposite direction on that runway. NASA would not allow them to run in the other direction.

So this needs to have a bunch of astericks by the claim.

Still absolutely insane that car was still accelerating at 1 MPH/s from 260-270. With enough road, I think 285-290 is possible....
