Fastest 1/4 ET ever in a car?

Yep, same thing McCain did on that aircraft carrier as a prank below deck in the staging area. Caused one rocket to fire from his buddies plane while setting it and others on fire, the pilot died. Resulting explosion-fire almost sank the ship but he got off because his daddy was the Admiral on the ship. Lost a bunch of planes and crew members. Look it up.

It was on the flight deck and the rocket trigger shorted in the firing circuit. It was documented in the post event report that the short was a known issue and was found to be repeatable under certain conditions. Also the rocket was not armed manually while on deck as the cockpit switch was found to be off. McCain was a FU ( had a customer in the same squadron) but he was cleared of any wrong doing. Of course the Navy wouldn't want the son of an Admiral to go down for that officially.
