Trivia Question...........

pantterapantteraMember
Asking "What is the fastest wheeled vehicle on earth?" will usually produce lots of Mickey Thompson/Bonneville/rocket car type guesses, but the correct answer is "The Space Shuttle"

There is no guessing now about the answer to the trivia question "What is the fastest wheeled vehicle in our solar system?"

It's Elon's Red Roadster and Starman!

Here's another Tesla trivia question......

What sub-contracting company builds those rocket's carbon-fiber landing legs?

The answer.....

AAR, Dan Gurney's engineering company, now operated by his sons Alex and Justin.
Despite their huge size, the 4 landing legs combined weight is around 4500 lbs, less than that of a Tesla Model S.
There are probably some Gurney flaps/bumps somewhere on those rockets, too.......rip Dan
