When it comes to automotive performance, few names capture attention like the BADD GT, a car that didn’t just challenge theoretical limits but shattered them in the real world. Built and driven by Johnny Bohmer, the BADD GT has redefined what it means to be a true street car, proving that genuine innovation happens not in simulations, but on the pavement.


In a world full of claimed benchmarks and digital speed projections, the BADD GT stands as the verified fastest street legal car on Earth, clocking an incredible 310.8 MPH (500.1 KM/H). This record set, measured and documented in real world conditions at Kennedy Space Center Shuttle Landing Facility with in Florida, USA.

Beyond numbers though, the story of the BADD GT is about authentic engineering, grassroots innovation, and the fusion of racing heritage with street-ready usability.


Below, we answer some of the most common questions about this groundbreaking machine, questions that have fueled conversations among automotive enthusiasts, engineers, and fans worldwide.

No other verified production or custom built street car has surpassed this speed in real world testing under the same street legal conditions. While some manufacturers claim higher numbers through computer simulations or theoretical projections, none have demonstrated proven, independently verified results like the BADD GT.


Is the BADD GT street legal?

Absolutely. The BADD GT is a fully street legal vehicle, complete with a valid title, Florida registration, and automotive insurance. Unlike purpose built racecars or track only prototypes, the BADD GT meets DOT and state regulatory requirements, proving that extreme speed and street legality can coexist.
