What is the fastest car speed in the world?

Answer 1

has to be light itself.

I would think it would be the f-18's launched off aircraft carriers. 0-180 in 2.00s

--------

no it's not light. Light doesn't accelerate because its speed is fixed. It depends whether you mean human built transport systems or of particles. The question is ambiguous a little...

--------

If you are talking about human built machines which are also not classified today, it would probably be a missile, my guess is it would be an "Anti-ICBM" missile like the sprinter missile.

The sprinter reached Mach 10 in 5 seconds, that means that if it accelerated just for 1 second, you'd be at at least a velocity of 650 meters per second (2100 feet per second) and that will be doubled in 2 second, tripled in 3 seconds etc.

(Actually, in the first few seconds of acceleration would have been much higher due to the low drag at lower velocities)

But if you are talking about the fastest acceleration in anything human built (Which is not classified/secret), it would probably be the .204 Ruger round which accelerates to about 1200 meters per second (about 4200 feet per second) in just a fraction of a second.

Answer 2

James May from the BBC show Top Gear hit 259.11 mph at a test run at the Volkswagen test track in Germany. Another test driver got into the 260s after May's run.

Answer 3

i think 0-30km/h is 3 sec i think 0-30km/h is 3 sec

Answer 4

The world land speed record set in 1997 is 763 miles per hour (1228 kmh).

Answer 5

A Top Fuel Dragster. They accelerate from 0 mph to 100 mph in under 1 second, and travel a quater mile in under 5 seconds.
