      @@robcarey2411 The only huge mistake was them believing they could pull off the lies. They absolutely faked the record, that's the reason they've never been able to get anywhere near the same numbers again. It's pretty simple to demonstrate it's false when all the numbers available are public: tire diameter, lane stripe length and spacing, gear ratios, RPM. It doesn't require any sort of crazy math to calculate the actual speed, and they forgot about that simple fact.

    Much respect to Shmee for coming to tour SSC's factory and make peace with the whole top speed debacle, and big credit to Jerod for trying to do right by the whole situation.
    For those who don't know, Jerod went through a lot of personal and professional grief to get to Tuatara. He spent a decade dealing with legal battles over the rights to a land parcel for his factory, further legal issues trying to get funding for the project, and right when he got past all of it, having given up on the factory site he'd tried so hard for, his first wife passed away. Then he finally got his car out there and started working at records, and the mistakes were made that led to the top speed record controversy and humiliation. Suffice to say, dude has been through a lot. Mind you, he never talks about these struggles because he seems like a pretty humble guy; I only know of them because I spent that entire decade searching him and his car up periodically, trying to see if Tuatara was actually happening, and only found things like his wife's obituary. Yet, here the car is.
    I wish him much success with this beautiful machine. Here's hoping things look up for Mr. Shelby and his company.

      SSC faked the speed run of 331mph with the SSC Tuatara and tried to deny it. They blamed Dewetron who they bought the test equipment from just for Dewetron to say we were not at the alleged 331mph run. More embarrassing they released an instagram post later that admitted the max speed of 331mph and the 301mph achieved running into the wind BOTH DIDNT HAPPEN. They re did the run this time with race logic verifying and achieved 295mph but average in both directions of 282.9 mph. They are fortunate Shmee came back after they tried to fake the run

SSC would have went away with their fake claims if they weren't called out by Tim and others.
