I love speed but no way in HELL this...

I watched this 3 times and it still made my testicles cringe the third time. Kind of like when you peak over a ledge really high up.

With that accent I would think he is local.

bahh Cagers seriously did 211 mph on my friend 99 Hayabusa...249 in a car is fast but not as scary as on the bike.....couple of times 188-190 after with my own bikes. At those speed you only pray that the car-bike doesn't fail. Props for the guy to do it on the track which provides a safe environement and an ambulance if you crash.

^ Yeah I remember those days.

Just wait young grasshopper. That guy comes off like he eats rusty nails for lunch anyways.

The spin outs after the runs are what made me cringe. I have dreams like that but they don't end as well.

^ I have to give him an A for effort and an F for prep.

If you watch again, it said it was his first time in the car since the UR TT conversion.

Going to the TX mile for your first butt time????

The "wooosh" when he let off caught him off guard for sure.

Surely you should be able to set the car up so that you can brake in a straight line without losing the back end though.

It points to someone sticking 50psi in the tyres!

Cool vid but its apples and oranges to a street car.

By the way if you're gonna show fast, show a top fuel not an alcohol car.

More like 20 seconds, given it's 50mph over the rated limit for them and the way he's treating them.
