Closing in on the Thrust SSC record. Getting closer to lighting the candle.

Somehow that never gets old. I did wonder a few things while watching though. How many sets of tires did it take to make it up the hill? How many takes am I watching? What kind of engine and transmission is in that thing!? Ken dropped the trans down into 1st a couple of timse and certainly 2nd and that engine was on high revs the entire time. Sounded like a high-revving 4 banger. Either way, insanity!

Looking at a lot of the shots, there aren't a lot of tire marks on the road.
I'm sure he drove it multiple times, but doesn't look like too many in anger. In the gymkhana videos, there's always a ton of rubber on the road from prior takes.

Impressive to do it all by memory, without a pacer/navigator.

IMO, The Zonda > Huayra on appearance.
Also the orange-trimmed Batmobile Huayra at the end
