That's a hell of a car. I'd take one if it was handed to me. Wonder what the price tag is.

i don't know but he was betting someone a 25000 dollar transmission, so I would imagine its a metric **** ton of money to get it to that speed.

I find it interesting he could never get it to stop in a normal fashion. He is always losing control when he is braking.

Wow, 50 m0re mph and he could have hit 300 mph, although he would have needed another mile of road.LOL!

Like the sound of the motor, reminded me of my built twin turbo Z.

I wonder how much more power would be needed to reach 260?

Probly like 300 more horses or something. The wind resistance at that speed is incomprehensible.
