Ever since the Benz Velo achieved a pace of 12 mph in 1894, mankind has become infatuated with fast cars. We have come a long way since the Velo set this record. The law of accelerating returns dictates that, with improved technology, progress itself speeds up. This is evidenced by the exponential records set since. Just shy of a century later, in 1993, the Dauer 962 Le Mans broke the back of 250 mph.
