(CNN) SSC North America, a small American carmaker that recently claimed a production car speed record on a highway near Las Vegas, announced it's going to do it all over again after questions were raised regarding video of the event. .11 mph was the result of two runs in opposite directions, to account for wind and road variations. The claimed official top speed of a combined average of 31611 mph was the result of two runs in opposite directions, to account for wind and road variations. The company later admitted that there had been problems with synchronization and timing in the video which had been produced by an outside production company. SSC North America is not backing down from claims that its car, the SSC Tuatara, actually hit the speeds claimed.
