Its not the skill as much as the engineering that goes into making happen.

Have any idea how much this monstrosity cost? What kind of fuel? It's all engineering people. This man is right. This isn't really a car but more of a vehicle designed for the sole purpose of achieving the world record for fastest land speed.

but the experience of going at 600+mph should be amazing and unforgettable.

At 18liters per second it would drain Top Gear entire season budget :lol:
