The rule you're pulling out of your ass is similar to the FIA rules on determining what vehicles can participate in the FIA GT. That rule has ZERO bearing on whether the Venom GT can get a VIN, pass smog, and be registered as a class C vehicle in the U.S, you know... all the things that make a vehicle a production car in the eyes of the law, all of which the Venom GT has been able to do.

Also according to your made up definition of what a production vehicle is, the Veyron would not have been a "production" car when it was released since it only sold 12 in its first year of production, and Bugatti only sold 5 of the modified SS cars which could hit 268mph.

So please be accurate when you claim to be "stating facts", when in reality, you're not.
I used Wikipedia for info, wasn't pulling rules out of my ass. It still lists the Veyron as fastest. And thats where I go the production car info from. So the Veyron has held the record for 8 years. And now it's the Venom. Thanks for the info!
