SSC
Hmm, I didn't think of this before but what tires is this SSC going to use? Like the Veyron, isn't this speed beyond anything the Tire Rack normally sells? Are they so hard you can use 'em for drifting or are they so sticky that one high-speed run and they're shot?

IF it actually gets past the Bugatti then the Veyron's engineers will just raise the electronic speed limiter and go hit a higher speed. I wouldn't be surprised if that cheap looking thing flew apart above 230mph.
The ingenuity of the Veyron is that it is absolutely stable at speeds past 230+ mph, not because it holds the record for the top speed in a production car. Panels don't vibrate and squeak or start to fall apart at those record-breaking speeds in the Veyron, whereas this "kit" car looks like its cheap interior could easily just come right off at 200+ mph.
A high priced "kit car" with a terrible and cheap looking interior that comes fully assembled. I have seen the car in person at SEMA and I was not impressed. However, if they are able to beat the Veryon's top speed (which I highly doubt), I will applaud their effort.
