I love too, but sometimes like this, they say stupid thing, they never reached the speed of sound with those stats.

[@3DPeter]

@@Peppins When that's a 195-60-16 wheel, then the circumference is about 2 meters. 1332kmh = 370m per second, divided by 2 meters = 185 times per second the wheel needs to spin. Then 185 times per second x 60 seconds = 11.100 rpm. Now their rpm meter showed 10400 rpm, so my calculation is about 10% off on what they claim, and that is because i can't tell for sure what size rim and tire they used, so their claim is very plausible as the mythbusters would say! Btw, the speed of sound is 330 meters per second, so 330 meters x 3600 seconds in 1 hour = 1188kmh. So they were about 10% ABOVE the speed of sound. And to get the engine and gearbox to rev up to such rpm, they just hooked up the driveshaft to the wheel side and not the differential side, because the differential side is always a reduction, so put in 4 revolutions and out comes one revolution on the wheels. ( i say 1:4 ratio as an example, because every car has it's own ratio) But they just turned it around, so input 1 revolution, out comes 4 revolution, and that is possible because there's no entire car that needs to be pushed forward because that would be impossible with that same engine, but it's only made to spin only a single 10kg wheel on a jackstand, and thats why the engine doesn't have a problem with that.

Use Co2 in the tire instead of air to prevent it from exploding. Once it has warmed and fully expanded it will not expand further. This is what has been done for land speed records to prevent the tires from exploding. also use a smaller side wall height to prevent it from being able to suck in the sides at high speed. loved the video i hope to see more. perhaps eventually you will get it to speed of sound and keep it there with out explosion and be able to maintain it safely.

[@somaday2595]

The G54 guys said the first tires were imploding and that makes sense. The centrifugal force pushed the inner tread out, so the sidewalls drew in, loosing the bead seal. The last tire was at higher pressure to offset the wall distortion. All gases as they are warmed well expand or increase in pressure. PV=nRT. Use of CO2 or N2 in a tire can be used to prevent an hot tire from internal burning which might increase its pressure enough to explode but I have never heard of CO2 filled tires. I believe the FAA standard limits O2 to 5% max in tires. Use of N2 will also assure minimal water; moisture might condense in the morning or the plane is in flight, but when the plane lands it could evaporate and increase tire pressure.

Perhaps you forget that a tire in contact with the road will flex, and it is that additional sidewall flexing that was absent in your experiment.
