Frankly, I do to, it's just feels like a truer "car" but then the ultimate land speed record isn't about "fastest car" its about the fastest vehicle that stays attached to the ground during it's trip. They did call the SSC a car though.

That's why they have classes.

Also amazing that the wheel driven car did 481MPH with around 3,000HP and it took SSC 110,000HP to go 767MPH.
