I don't find it's the top speed that is so impressive, but how fast it gets there. I also thought for a world record, that the vehicle had to go both directions on the track to account for wind, elevation change, etc.

I guess when you have lots of power, you don't need to hammer on it.

Makes one wonder how quick he could have done it if in a hurry. PDQ and PDF for sure. C.
