| SSC Ultimate Aero - Guinness World Record Run - 256.18 mph |
 |
This is a clip of the SSC Ultimate Aero's official
record run in the state of Washington. On
September 13, 2007, SSC managed 257.41 mph (414.31
km/hr) in its first run. During the second run, it
topped out at 254.88 mph (410.24 km/hr). An
average of 256.18 mph (412.28 km/hr) from both
runs has made the SSC Ultimate Aero the official
fastest production car in the world, recorded by
Guiness Books of World Records.
On October 9, 2007, The Guinness Book of World
Records officially recorded the SSC Ultimate Aero
as the fastest production car with a top speed of
256.19 mph (412.28 km/h).
Because of the "S" bends and uneven pavement from
the highway, the driver of the Ultimate Aero, 71
years old Chuck Bigelow (an auto enthusiast with
no racing or testing background), says that there
was a lot more pedal to push. SSC will send an
Ultimate Aero to Europe to test its true top speed
on one of Germany's ultra-smooth test tracks.
SSC is also in the works for developing a 220+ mph
ultra-luxury sports sedan to target "Guinness
Fastest Luxury Sedan", set to debut in 2009.

"The World's Fastest Production Car"
Guinness World Record of 256.18 mph
This is a clip of SSC Shelby Super Cars'
(American) supercar/hypercar Ultimate Aero TT top
speed testing in May of 2007. SSC did transmission
temperature tests during these runs for its 2008
Ultimate Aero twin-turbo models. These tests have
proven to be successful, and managed to hit 241.4
mph at 71% throttle.
By the end of August 2007, SSC was confident and
invited The Guiness Book of World Records to
officially record its top speed for the World's
Fastest Production car held by the (Swedish)
Koenigsegg CCR's 242 mph, and surpassing the
unofficial (Italian/French/German) Bugatti
Veyron's top speed of 253 mph. The high speed run
in September was held in Washington State's
predetermined "public" highway.
On September 13, 2007, the Ultimate Aero broke the
World Top Speed record run at 256.15 mph on a 2
mile stretch of public highway in Washington
State.
On October 9, 2007, The Guinness Book of World
Records officially recorded the SSC Ultimate Aero
as the fastest production car with a top speed of
256.19 mph (412.28 kph).
Because of the "S" bends and uneven pavement from
the highway, the driver of the Ultimate Aero, 71
years old Chuck Bigelow (an auto enthusiast with
no racing or testing background), says that there
was more pedal to push. SSC will send an Ultimate
Aero to Europe to test its true top speed on one
of Germany's ultra-smooth test tracks.
The SSC Ultimate Aero also holds Road and Track's
slalom record, previously held by the Ferrari
Enzo.
SSC is also in the works for developing a 220+ mph
ultra-luxury sports sedan to target "Guinness
