It was on its way to attempt another high-speed run. After much controversy, Shelby Super Cars eventually proved that the Tuatara is the fastest production car in the world early this year. However, while that record of an average top speed of 282.9 mph is a highly impressive achievement, it remains a little short of SSC's true goal: to go faster than 300 mph. The team behind the American hypercar is still aiming to get that record under its belt as soon as possible, but things have taken a turn for the worse after a car carrier transporting the very car that holds the current record was subjected to strong winds and tipped over with the special supercar inside.
