5.38 second quarter mile...fast ride---
Oddly, the top fuel dragsters (internal combustion engines) can run it faster (4.5 seconds, with a trap speed of 332 mph...)

Bugatti Veyron around 10.1 seconds at 139 mph
Corvette Z06 runs 11.2 to 11.6 seconds...
VW GTE runs 15.2
and a 2013 Prius about 18 seconds...

What kind of car/space shuttle is that?


It's a funny car. Which is basically a top fuel car inside of a "fake" shell. it's just a dragster with a shell on the outside of it. That shell does nothing to protect anyone, which is why the driver is sitting in that cage all back of the bus like. Whenever these things crash the only thing left is the damn roll cage.

Also that thing he hits near the end of the video is the chute release, I think. That seems most likely cause the car jolts as the chutes catch air.
