I think I've seen that one. It was a gas car though right? IIRC, it looked like a large cigar with wheels. The motor started out with very low ropms and slowly built-up to the top speed. It was crazy watching how fast it was going. Imagine if that rope were to snap? From car to rocket!
IMO, that was cheating though. A tethered vehicle going in circles is simply a motor with no controls. Much more difficult to build a real R/C speedster...
