- Animats 6y agoThe official land speed record uses a measured mile. You start as far back as you need to and then go through the traps and get timed. The Southern California Timing Association sets up time trials on the Bonneville Flats frequently. They routinely time speeds over 300MPH. These SSC guys need to go to a place like that and do it with timers and spectators, or shut up.
