    Ever since humans have been making cars, they’ve obsessed with making them faster. Speed is arguably the most important measurement when it comes to automotive progress. And in the last 100 years, we’ve come a LONG way. Today we’re looking back on the fastest car of EVERY SINGLE YEAR for the last 100 years. From McLarens to Bugattis to brands you’ve never even heard of, this is D-List.

    A small correction to be made, the SSC ultimate Aero was the world record holder for 3 years between 2007 to 2010 ( It even held the Guinness world record for those years), It was only the super sport Bugatti that held a world record. Also of no relation, There's some pretty cool land car record speeds from jet cars that went over 700 MPH on the land, insanely crazy feat, you guys should check out the ThrustSSC

      It's simple, in Germany if a tuner changes more than certain percentage of the car (I think it's 20% or 25%) they can put their own name on it and are considered a car manufacturer and not a tuner. For example other than RUF, Alpina and ABT are also considered manufacturers. RUF has tuned 911's to just a bit more than that necessary percentage but they also build cars almost from scratch which they used Porsche parts for as well as a ton of their own.

    @TDCflyer 2 года назад +2

    Fun Fact: None of those superfast cars of recent years can actually go 250, 270, or 300 mph. Why, you ask?
    They simply can't go for a full hour at those speeds. Just to set the proper perspective: The Veyron SS at top speed would completely drain it's fuel tank within 12 minutes, the tires would give out roughly within 15 minutes.
    So, 5 to 6 pitstops and major maintenance within an hour and you are no faster than a cheap midrange family sedan covering 300 miles.
    The true mastery of building a fast car would be to create a fast car that can actually cover large distances in comfort at high average speed.

    For anyone wondering: James didnt talk about the DB4 GT (1959), which had a topspeed of 152 MPH, and the DB4 GT Zagato (1960-1961) with a topspeed of 153.4 MPH.

    • @krololol
      @krololol 4 года назад +145

      Exactly, to beat the official record you need to do two runs. One in both directions (not reverse) the top speed is the average top speed of the two runs. So koenigsegg is officially the fastest.

      Yes. It's not legit. Probably still fastest by a wide margin, but stick to the rules if you want to be taken seriously.

      At those speeds, even the slightest on declines could assist the top speed. Its likely they pulled some Ferrari level shit on this
