The military turned down Tucker's combat car because it was too fast.

Mr. Tucker saw the war clouds looming on the horizon and began working on a high-speed combat car. It
was bulletproof, had air conditioning, and mounted a power-operated gun turret. The combat car was turned down by the military. It had one drawback, they said. It was too fast.
