Can see why they didn't bother to do another run with the wick turned up higher. Particularly liked the youtube comment that 7 bugattis disliked this video!

What's the point of the parachute hardly the Space shuttle!

Top speed is pretty impressive tho.

That thing goes fairly! I swear before the gtr was released that they were designing it so it would be harder to tune than the R34 etc.

yes I'd definitely be stting myself at that point. Seemed to lose speed very quick though - I'm suprised the parachute didn't stabilise the spin.

Jeez the placement of the cross runway was immaculate, that could/should have been seriously nasty!

fk me. Balls of steel to save that slide. Love the way he shows no emotion once the car stops, just a whoo, a clap & two fingers to the camera.

Outstanding.

Got off pretty lightly- driver walked away from that one amazingly enough. Anyone else notice these cars are making 200mph in a standing HALF mile??!!
