White Knuckling It, 200 MPH in a Carrera GT (link).......

Thought some of the people might like it. Looks like a straight 6th gear pull (not really quickly accelerating fast) to 200 mph.

Carrera GT (Life At 200 MPH)

Seems like a pretty stupid thing to do on a road with other cars. Not to mention the fact that it is at night.
What an idiot.
The views expressed in this reply are the opinion of me.

not to mention he's looking at the speedo rather than the road while approaching 200mph.

If it wasn't for guys like this, we wouldn't have http://www.wreckedexotics.com/

Think about the entertainment value we'd lose.
