Corrected entry: The rocket car technicians get excited when the rocket car breaks the old speed record, the problem is, you need two consecutive passes within an hour with an average speed to set a record. They would not be excited about how fast the car went, they would be concerned about getting the multi-million dollar vehicle back.

Correction: They are excited because the car has just shown it is capable of beating the record, even if it would not officially stand. They would probably be concerned after their excitement dies down.
