Why Do Bugatti And Hennessey Both Think They Hold The Fastest Convertible Record? | Carscoops carscoops
, plus seven coupes – rather less than the 29 Venoms Hennessey suggested it would build at the time.
The reason is that certain conditions must be met for Guinness to ratify a record. I asked Guinness for a full list of rules a car must satisfy to become the world’s fastest car, but its team was unable to provide them because the criteria is currently being updated. But looking at recent records, one of those is that the car in question must have its speed recorded in two directions on the same stretch of road within 60 minutes to record an average.
Cars must also be in showroom stock condition, in the same spec that owners receive their cars, for a record to count. Back in 2013 Guinness voided the Veyron 16.4 coupe’s 267.8 mph run from 2010 and its “world’s fastest car” title after discovering that production cars were equipped with 258 mph speed restrictors not fitted to the record car.
