2022 in Review: Winners and losers:
They say genius is 1 percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration. In the case of Scot Burner’s new Guinness World Record, we’d say it’s 99 percent inspiration. He earned the certificate for fastest mile driven in reverse, averaging 48 mph lapping his C7 Corvette around the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park racetrack in Kentucky. We did something similar in 2011 with rental cars, which got four of our staffers banned from Avis for life. Turns out loss prevention has no sense of humor.
The only bummer is Porsche says vehicle speed should be limited to 81 mph with the tent on top. We have never known Porsche not to be serious, so we’d heed that warning.Did someone say, “EV startups need more bad news”? In October, Trevor Milton, the founder and former CEO of Nikola, was convicted of fraud in federal court . Nikola, if you’ll recall, was going to sell an electric pickup called the Badger, but the firm switched gears to focus entirely on electric semi trucks.
