i'm all for automotive feats, but something like that has to be taken off public streets.
200+ miles an hour comes to the rough equivalent of traveling the length of a football field every second.
that's just too fast to react.
you wanna kill yourself, fine, that's too easy to kill other people.

Unless you have a race track near you where you can go, I don't see the point of owning one of these as you can't unleash it on the streets. It's just another pointless status symbol.

I doubt we'll see too many on the streets at the price they go for so rest assured were safe at the moment.
I would love to see what it feels like to go that fast.
fastest i ever went in a car was 120 but that was on an open country road in the middle of nowhere out in western pa.

You sir are 100% correct.

Amazing. Good for him. The lambo is a sick car and if you can afford one you should buy one, who the fuck cares about where you will use it and what not. If you love cars like that and can afford it, then good for you for working hard and making that much dough. Enjoy your money, you can't take it with you.

I disagree. In a world where people are starving in your very town, or can't pay their fucking heat bill because gas prices our through the fucking roof... what's the fucking point? Just more pointless indulgence.

Whats the point of making a production car that will go 200+ miles per hour? Theres not really anyplace you can legally drive it that fast anyway.

clevohardcore - 11-28-2007 at 08:14 PM

that was a public road and the law is very much against that sort of thing. All it would take is one innocent individual to travel through a green light or simply use his turn signal to merge into his path and it would be devestating. You can't swerve or brake like normal going 200 +

With a car like that it is more about the performance of the car that attracts a driver to that sort of automobile. Not really the top speed. The 0-60, handling, track days, the sheer feeling of the way a car like that would drive and yes the looks.

As far as speed like that on a public road, I am with you guys 100%. There is no good reason ever to put innocent peoples lives in danger.

well, he's on the 202 loop in Phoenix so you can cancel the green light nightmare scenario.

it's interesting you say that because he does precisely that in the video. on one of the attempts, he is not able to attain the desired speed because of another car on the freeway.

Same idea but way more ridiculous. The second vid is crazy there are parts I almost couldn't watch when I first saw it.

I wanna fuck a chick that has a Lambo like that one in the video. Not for the car, but cuase she'd be rich.
