Incredible first-person video of Elon Musk's Hyperloop accelerating to 200 mph

The winner of yesterday’s SpaceX Hyperloop Pod design competition was the WARR Hyperloop. Built by students at the Technical University of Munich, it hit 324 Km/h (~201 mph). First-person video below.

According to TechCrunch, Musk was impressed but says he now thinks a pod “could get up to above 500 km/h even in the relatively short mile-long test track SpaceX currently has in place.”
