Elon Musk Unveils Boring Co's First Tunnel
People go 250 kmh on German highways regularly (unfortunately). It doesn't seem to be unpractical.

In a confined tunnel pushing the air out of the way is more difficult than in open air. There's just less space for it to all go.

And whats the speed limit in German tunnels? In case you don't care to find out: 80-100 km/h (50-60 mph)depending on the state.

Yes, but my point was whether the price if the tires is a show stopper or not.

Not impractical but these tires are very expensive.
