I can't imagine anything a human can sit in (maybe a rocket sled) that can accelerate faster than a top fuel dragster. When they go a 1/4 mile. 3.58 seconds at 386.26 mph (621.61 km/h) was set by Sammy Miller in his Vanishing Point funny car in July 1984!
So fast they changed the rules to slow em down. 386 MPH after less than 4 seconds is nucking futz.
I would love to have a ride in something like what Major Roger J. Smith, U.S. Air Force had: From brake release at Grand Forks Air Force Base, North Dakota, at 913 feet (278 meters) above Sea Level, the F-15 reached 30,000 meters (98,425 feet) in 3 minutes, 27.799 seconds. WOW!
