Thrust SSC set the land speed record on October 15, 1997.
Massive amounts of thrust.
Operation Desert Thrust happened in 2007.
brabus tkr 270miles per hour =ANSWER= Thrust SST exceeded the speed of sound on the Black ROck desert and still holds the record.
The fastest car is the Thrust SSC (Supersonic Car) which broke the sound barrier at 763 mph.

A supersonic thrust car made in Britain. It broke and still holds the land speed record!
A Thrust SSC is a supersonic jet propelled car. It still holds the world land speed record and went as fast as 763 mph making it the first car to break the sound barrier.

By car I assume you are referring to anything with wheels powered by some form of propulsion. If so, then the fastest recorded speed by a vehicle is the Thrust SSC which set a world record in 1997 of 763 mph. The record was set at the Black Rock Desert in Nevada, USA by a British pilot Andy Green.
a jet engine afterburner is when you put a lot of gas to the engine and you go very fast... An afterburner (or reheat) is an additional component added to some jet engines, primarily those on military supersonic aircraft. Its purpose is to provide a temporary increase in thrust, both for supersonic flight and for takeoff (as the high wing loading typical of supersonic aircraft designs means that take-off speed is very high). On military aircraft the extra thrust is also useful for combat situations. This is achieved by injecting additional fuel into the jet pipe downstream of (i.e. after) the turbine. The advantage of afterburning is significantly increased thrust; the disadvantage is its very high fuel consumption and inefficiency, though this is often regarded as acceptable for the short periods during which it is usually used.

Road Legal? The Ultimate Aero SSC, although it is in close dispute with the Bugatti Veyron 16.4, because both have come within 1-2 mph of each other in different top speed runs.Non road legal? The Thrust SSC currently holds the landspeed record
The Thrust SSC is the worlds fastest car with a recorded speed of 1,228km/h(763mph).
