A few months ago, American tuners SSC sparked outrage for allegedly falsifying the speed of its Tuatara hypercar during its attempt at breaking the production car land speed record. Now, the company is back and it’s still focussed on passing the 300mph barrier. The firm’s engineers are currently working on piecing together a more accurate timing system, using equipment from Garmin, Racelogic and the International Mile Racing Association. The Tuatara has set a two-way average speed of 282.9mph during its preliminary runs – and, at that speed, it has already broken the official “fastest production car” record of 277.9mph, which was set by the Koenigsegg Agera RS in 2017. But, the Bugatti Chiron SuperSport recently had a bite at the cherry, too, setting a speed of 304.77mph.
