So they hit 331mph Canadian?

That is a key distinction. It doesn’t necessarily mean that SSC did anything wrong, becuase at this point I think DEWETRON probably wants to distance themselves from the whole thing. If it does come out that the record was faked, they don’t want that to tarnish the reputation of their equipment, and since they didn’t…

When I was quite young, my dad had a Subaru GL-10(?) that had a digital dash (such technology!). He used to take the car up to 62 mph, ask “are you ready to go 100??” and press the button to change units to km/h. I thought it was WILD we were going 100 miles an hour. Like a lightspeed jump! I could feel it, I swear.

Was going to pop on and say this. If you take their 300-330 ish speeds as km/hr, then that translates to high 100's, low 200's in mph.

So...just do it again?

Pretty simple really, they had the speedo set to KPH.

By going South on their run, they were able to utilize a gravity assist going down the globe.

There has to be a higher barrier to entry to getting a gun than filling out a 4473 and being on your way. Even something as simple as an online course and test of basic “dos and don’ts” might go a long way in limiting some of this egregious behavior.
